Pasadena: Unexpected Roots
October 1, 2014
Wednesday, 7:30 p.m.
Independent scholar Roberta H. Martinez shares an intimate look at Pasadena's earliest days as reflected in the romance, marriage, and work of writers Arturo Bandini and Helen Elliott Bandini; melding the legacies of
Old California and a changing sensibility to women's identity and roles: connections with the Valley Hunt Club,
Greene and Greene architecture, Charles Lummis and even a connection with the Manhattan Project.

Ooh, wonderful! I'm going to send this post to myself so I'll remember to make reservations.
ReplyDeleteI think you're going to be intrigued by Helen Elliott Bandini. She and her mom were suffragists; one by action and the other action as well as declaration.
