ReadMore meets the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 10 a.m. in the Gertrude Scott Room.
This month we will be discussing Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray.
Frances Perkins arrives in New York City at the turn of the 20th century, driven by a deep sense of purpose and a passion for reform. As she moves between the tenements of Hell’s Kitchen and the salons of Greenwich Village, she forms lasting bonds with activists, artists, and political thinkers. A rocky first meeting with a young Franklin D. Roosevelt eventually grows into a powerful partnership that will carry them to the White House. As the first woman to serve in a U.S. Cabinet, Frances must navigate personal sacrifice, political attacks, and the weight of national crisis, all while helping to shape a better future for America.
