Dr. Alexandra M. Nickliss:
Phoebe Apperson Hearst: A Life of Power and Politics

Dr. Nickliss is the author of a recent biography of Phoebe Apperson Hearst. Her illustrated talk will focus on Mrs. Hearst’s contributions to the U.C. campus, including the Hearst Architectural Plan, and her activities as an advocate for women in the early 20th century. Hearst died a century ago, this spring, but her influences are still felt.

Books will be available for sale and signing after the talk.
