Join us for a virtual discussion with Jennifer Chiaverini, the New York Times bestselling author of several historical novels, the Elm Creek Quilts series, and six collections of quilt patterns inspired by her books. Jennifer will tell us all about her new book, The Women’s March, an enthralling historical novel of the 1913 woman’s suffrage movement inspired by three courageous women who bravely risked their lives and liberty in the fight to win the vote. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame and the University of Chicago, Jennifer lives with her husband and two sons in Madison, Wisconsin.
In connection with the visit from Jennifer Chiaverini, we’ve programmed a series of events related to the author and subjects explored in The Women’s March.
