Virtual Author Talk with Allison Pataki: Finding Margaret Fuller

The Kemmerer Library-Harding Township and Main Library Alliance invite you to a virtual chat with the best-selling author Allison Pataki.

Allison Pataki is a New York Times bestselling author with a passion for telling the stories of leading ladies lost in history. Her newest book, Finding Margaret Fuller, comes out this March. It is an epic reimagining of Margaret Fuller’s life—a star-studded and gripping account, full of lush details about the life of an overlooked contributor to Transcendentalism and women’s rights.

Margaret Fuller (1810–1850) was a Transcendentalist writer. She worked briefly for Ralph Waldo Emerson and then struck out on her own. After publishing two successful books, including one focused on inequities faced by women, she traveled to Rome in 1847 as a foreign news correspondent to witness what she and her boss, Horace Greeley, hoped would be the birth of the nation of Italy. She married and gave birth to a son, and after an attack in which she was almost killed, she and her family departed for America.
