KW: ADULT EVENT: Three Women: the Treacherous, the Bold, and the Brilliant

Bev Schuetz from History Talks presents three diverse but equally unique women: Peggy Shippen, the young, beautiful wife of Benedict Arnold who orchestrated the betrayal of America and feigned madness in the process. Nellie Bly, the daring and talented investigative reporter, gave voice to the voiceless by exposing the horrors in an insane asylum and spotlighting other scandals. And Marie Curie, renowned physicist and chemist who was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and the only woman to win it in two fields. She pioneered research in radioactivity in the unwelcoming male dominated scientific world. Enjoy the unforgettable stories of these three dramatically different but truly amazing women.
