Angelica: For Love and Country in a Time of Revolution
March 21, 2026 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Overview
Join us for a women-centric view of the American Revolution through the life of Angelica Schuyler Church.
In an enthralling and revealing view of the Revolutionary era through the eyes of Angelica Schuyler Church, Molly Beer breathes vibrant new life into a period usually dominated by masculine themes and often dulled by familiarity. Her transatlantic network of important friends spanned the political spectrum of her time and place, and her astute eye and brilliant letters kept them well informed. A woman of great influence in a time of influential women (Catherine the Great and Marie-Antoinette were contemporaries), Angelica was at the red-hot center of American history at its birth. In telling her story, Beer illuminates how American women have always plied influence and networks for political ends, including the making of a new nation.
