A Biographer's Blog

I had a wonderful time speaking at the salon at the Providence Athenaeum last night.  There was a crowd of about 60 people, who were lively, engaged, and excited to learn more about Harriet Hosmer.  What more could I ask for?  Well, sherry served in antique glasses, tart apples dusted with cinnamon, and a beautiful room full of books for a start.  If anyone happens to find him or herself in Providence, stop in and take a look around.  Make sure to pay tribute the Athenaeum’s patron goddess Athena, who sits above the circulation desk.
