“Ordinary women do extraordinary things,” said author and award-winning historian Kate Clifford Larson. 

Continued Larson, “We don’t have enough stories about women. As an American historian, there are so many women in our American story that we don’t know about, and we should. I don’t need to tell the stories of men; there are plenty of people out there telling their stories. Women need their stories told – women of color, indigenous women, women of different abilities – they all need to have their stories told because they are part of the fabric and the history of this country and have helped shape the way it is today.”

Larson will be telling Rosemary Kennedy’s previously untold story through her book, “Rosemary: The Hidden Kennedy Daughter,” at a virtual event hosted on March 23. This will be a signature event hosted during the Library System’s March-based Women’s History Month program series.
