Lunch and Learn: Revolutionary Women Writers

Free virtual Presentation!

During the Revolution, Connecticut women left a trove of written materials – letters, diaries, recipes, journals, poems, and account books. Through them, we can see their cares and interests and how the Revolution affected their daily lives – sometimes in subtle ways and sometimes profound. Yet all of them used writing to create meaning and connection in a deeply unsettled time.

Please join us as Dr. Marie McDaniel contextualizes several written materials from the Connecticut Museum’s American Revolution collection. Dr. McDaniel was the 2025 Project Scholar for of the American Revolution Papers Digitization Project at the Connecticut Museum.
