Wilson Center/American Historical Association Washington History Seminar

While the story of the Yalta Conference is a history we think we know so well, newly available sources have challenged our preconceptions about this week in February 1945, as the future teetered on the precipice between World War and Cold War. Examining Yalta through the eyes of three young women—Sarah Churchill, Anna Roosevelt, and Kathleen Harriman—Catherine Grace Katz reveals the personal forces that shaped this historic summit and illuminates the profound importance of the relationships between these women and their famous fathers that helped to shape the 20th Century.

Catherine Grace Katz will be joined in conversation by Serhii Plokhii (Harvard University) and Allida Black (Miller Center for the Study of the Presidency, UVA). Free to register via this link.
