May First Thursday
Marcet Haldeman Julius
May 7, 5:30 pm
Enjoy the presentation at the Museum or from the comfort of your own home via Zoom. If you are unable to watch it live, we will post the video here the next day, as well as on our Facebook page, and have it up for about a week.
Join us as Dr. Kerry Wynn discusses the life of Marcet Haldeman Julius. Born in Girard, Kansas, she went on to become an American feminist, actress, playwright, civil rights advocate, editor, author and bank president. She would travel to the Soviet Union in the 1930s, serve as a delegate at the National Convention of the Socialist Party of America, and her husband ran for a Senate seat for that party. She would later die in Girard before being buried in Illinois.
