About the event:
In this live, virtual talk, Lottie Whalen will discuss her new book, Radicals and Rogues: the Women Who Made New York Modern, the story of a group of women whose experiments in art and life set the tone for the rise of New York as the twentieth century’s capital of modern culture. Across the 1910s and ’20s, through provocative creative acts, shocking fashion, political activism and dynamic social networks, these women reimagined modern life and fought for the chance to realize their visions.
