Author Event with Catherine Grace Katz

Join us for a presentation by Catherine Grace Katz, author of "The Daughters of Yalta: The Churchills, Roosevelts, and Harrimans: A Story of Love and War," which tells the dramatic story of the three young women who were chosen by their fathers to travel with them to Yalta, each bound by fierce family loyalty, political savvy, and intertwined romances that powerfully colored these crucial days. Catherine Grace Katz is a writer and historian from Chicago. She graduated from Harvard in 2013 with a BA in History and received her MPhil in Modern European History from Christ’s College, University of Cambridge in 2014, where she wrote her dissertation on the origins of modern counterintelligence practices. After graduating, Catherine worked in finance in New York City before a very fortuitous visit to the book store in the lobby of her office in Manhattan led her to return to history and writing. She is currently pursuing her JD at Harvard Law School. "The Daughters of Yalta" is her first book.
Presented in partnership with the Highland Park Public Library.
