SUMMARY:Family Ties Panel at Massachusetts Historical Society (IN PERSON & VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:A’Lelia will join biographers Jeffrey Boutwell and Hester Kaplan — who also have written about family members — on a panel moderated by Pulitzer Prize winner Megan Marshall.\nThe event is hybrid and free of charge. An in-person reception will begin at 4:15 PM.\nClick here to register \nFrom the MHS website: This panel discussion brings together three American subjects from different eras and professions:  George Boutwell\, 19th century Massachusetts politician; A’Lelia Walker\, Progressive Era business woman and arts patron; Justin Kaplan\, prize-winning 20th century biographer of Twain and Whitman.  What do their biographies have in common?  Boutwell: Radical Republican and Champion of Democracy was written by a distant cousin; Joy Goddess: A’Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance by a great-granddaughter; and Twice Born: Finding My Father in the Margins of Biography by a daughter.  How does the “necessary entwinement”—Hester Kaplan’s phrase for the binding of biographer to subject—alter\, how does it feel\, when the subject is a family member?  Learn about three remarkable\, impactful lives\, and the writing lives of their biographer relatives.\n \n
