Event Details:
It’s been said that if you remember the ‘60s, you weren’t really there. But when Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Doris Kearns Goodwin and her late husband, Dick, started to go through the three hundred boxes of personal papers from his time as one of the men behind JFK’s New Frontier, co-designer of Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, and Robert Kennedy’s close advisor, that revolutionary decade became as tangible to the couple as it was 60 years ago. Join Goodwin, who also worked for Johnson and assisted in writing his memoir, for an evening of personal remembrance and historical reckoning for a decade not unlike our own.
Doris Kearns Goodwin is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of numerous works on American history. Her most recent book is An Unfinished Love Story: A Personal History of the 1960s.
