PERFORMANCE: Sisters of the Mother Forest
In the 1930s, what began as a botanical research trip propelled two Cincinnati scientist sisters into the fight to save the virgin forest of eastern Kentucky, and forever changed ecological science and environmental conservation.
Drawing on both storytelling and theatrical traditions, EKU professor Dr. Alice Jones explores the lives and careers of sister scientists Annette Braun (1884-1978) and E. Lucy Braun (1889-1971)--the first two women to earn PhDs at the University of Cincinnati.
The one-act play is free and open to the public, and Jones will be available afterward for conversation.
Event Date: April 05 7:00 p.m. Location: Pearl Buchanan Theater Cost: Free
