Join us virtually to discuss the 2019 "The Only Woman in the Room" by Marie Benedict.
About this month's title:
She possessed a stunning beauty. She also possessed a stunning mind. Could the world handle both?
Her beauty almost certainly saved her from the rising Nazi party and led to marriage with an Austrian arms dealer. Underestimated in everything else, she overheard the Third Reich's plans while at her husband's side, understanding more than anyone would guess. She devised a plan to flee in disguise from their castle, and the whirlwind escape landed her in Hollywood. She became Hedy Lamarr, screen star.
A limited number of physical copies of the selected title are available in advance at the Belt Branch for check out. This selection is also available digitally on the library's Hoopla app.
This program is for adults 18+. Discussion will be held virtually via Zoom. Advance registration required- meeting details will be e-mailed the day before the program.
Our Virtual Branch allows us to schedule events that are online only. This includes Facebook videos, YouTube, and Zoom.
