Kelly in Kansas

During the final half day of AHA sessions, I planned to stop by to hear Carol Berkin's portion of the panel focusing on women historians in New York City. I ended up staying for the entire session which engaged the audience with diverse stories of how women advanced in the male-dominated profession along with dealing with the rewards and challenges of living in "the city" over 5 decades.

Later in the day I joined a friend to see Defiance. Quite moving. Then, more time in the city before the TAH Project Directors meeting.
