A Conversation with Annette Gordon-Reed

Join us on Thursday, April 2, at 6 p.m. for a conversation with acclaimed historian and Pulitzer Prize winner Annette Gordon-Reed. She is best known for her work at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello and for exploring hidden American stories. A Thomas Jefferson scholar, Gordon-Reed, will talk extensively about her work and how it applies to the world today. From legal and racial issues to extensive research on Thomas Jefferson and his life, Gordon-Reed’s groundbreaking work in bringing lesser-known American stories to light has been essential to pulling the curtain back on hidden American history.

This program is held in conjunction with our current temporary exhibit, Making Amends, which explores America’s progress toward a “more perfect union” through the history of all 27 Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.

ASL interpretation is available during our events.
