Program Description

Event Details

Special program for Mother's Day!
Carol Simon Levin portrays Lillian Moller Gilbreth, motion study pioneer and “Cheaper by the Dozen” mother of 12 — then shares the stories of other overlooked women innovators, including many women of color.  From Margaret Knight (the 19th century “Female Edison”) to Hollywood superstar Hedy Lamarr, these “Mothers of Invention” changed our lives, yet their accomplishments were all too often ignored, discounted or credited to others.  Adults only.  Registration required.
