Daring women of Maryland made their mark on history as spies, would-be queens, and fiery suffragettes.

This is a partnered event with Anne Arundel County Public Library and the Historic London Town & Gardens.

Sarah Wilson escaped indentured servitude in Frederick by impersonating the queen's sister. Baltimorean Virginia Hall spied against the Nazis, while having just one leg. From famous figures like Harriet Tubman to unsung heroines like "Lady Law" Violet Hill Whyte, author Lauren R. Silberman introduces Maryland's most tenacious and adventurous women in this virtual program presented through Zoom webinar.

Registration for this event will be open from March 4, 2021 @ 9:00am to March 18, 2021 @ 1:00pm.
