Monday University: A Conversation between Mary Lincoln and Lucretia Garfield In-Person

Two American women – from different generations – sharing their differences and commonalities.  Mary Lincoln and Lucretia Garfield meet over tea and discuss their paths to the White House and beyond.  You will be surprised about the experiences they had in common!  Hear them expound on interesting topics such as their educations and how they met their husbands, with private stories about marriage and their children.  Discover how they dealt with life in the Executive Mansion ~ and assassination.  

These two educated, intelligent women also examine their early lives and how they grew into independent widows.  One becomes the “Vanishing First Lady,” while the other remains one of the most misunderstood First Ladies.
