The incredible life of Belle da Costa Greene has been told in several biographies and scholarly articles. But her captivating narrative has also inspired creative works of historical fiction, plays, and music. This panel discussion will highlight three of the most significant adaptations of Belle Greene’s life: Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray’s novel The Personal Librarian (2021), Juliane Hiam’s play Revels and Revelations (2010), and Epiphany “Big Piph” Morrow’s hip-hop track “The Ballad of Belle da Costa Greene” (2018). Join the creators for a lively program featuring the back-stories of these works, as well as discussion and performance.
This program takes place in Gilder Lehrman Hall on the Ground Floor. Doors to the Hall will open 30 minutes before the program begins.
