All 112 justices in the history of the US Supreme Court (as of 2011) have been lawyers.

No. The US Constitution vests Congress with the authority to determine the structure of the federal courts, including the US Supreme Court. Congress set the number of justices on the Court at nine in the Judiciary Act of 1869.
It requires the vote of at least four of the nine US Supreme Court justices to grant a petition for writ of certiorari. If four Justices agree, the Supreme Court will accept the case. This is referred to as the "Rule of Four."
Historically, Supreme Court justices have typically been white, protestant males from upper-middle to upper class backgrounds. All Supreme Court justices so far have been licensed attorneys, although not all had law degrees, particularly in the 18th and 19th centuries. This profile is gradually changing. The current Court seats six men and three women; and two justices are considered ethnic minorities for demographic purposes. None of the current justices is protestant: six are Roman Catholic and three are Jewish. Some of the justices come from family backgrounds of modest means.
