Just got back from this author talk at East Granby CT community center. She was an incredible speaker-animated, vivacious,intelligent,- so interactive with the audience- also well read audience, with a long Q& A period.Listening to how/why she wrote both book, the years of research that went into both, etc., was fascinating. Plan to visit to the Bellamy-Ferriday House in Bethlehem CT (con.)

kspenmoll (Con.) This house is where actress, philanthropist Caroline Ferriday lived,which is now a museum.She was instrumental in getting the Ravensbruck “rabbits”to the US where some had reconstructive surgery on their legs which were experimented on by Nazi doctors.There were Polish girls who joined the underground resistance & were captured. I know little about this group, so her talk tonight was about an area of history/women‘s history I know little of 5y
