Taken from the tabloids? “A fabulously wealthy New York beauty marries a cold-hearted British aristocrat at the behest of her Machiavellian mother." In the Gilded Age 1890s, fame began to overshadow wealth. But fame AND wealth was, apparently, an irresistible combination.

Socially ambitious Alva Vanderbilt was bound and determined to raise the family to the status she thought they deserved and crack “The 400” in New York’s society. Succeeding wildly, she then focused on daughter Consuelo, a glittering “prize," whose arranged marriage to the Duke of Marlborough has become a well-known example of the advantageous but loveless marriages common during the Gilded Age.

Amanda Mackenzie Stuart’s Consuelo and Alva Vanderbilt: The Story of a Daughter and Mother in the Gilded Age is a dual biography of two of the most famous women of the era. Drawing on years of research, Stuart meticulously sketches New York at the turn of the century, the mores by which the wealthiest part of society lived, and the avid interest the rest of the country had in their goings on.

Join us and Annemarie Sawkins, as she leads what promises to be a fascinating discussion!

Highly praised, Milwaukee-based playwright Alice Austen has just published her debut novel—33 Place Brugmann— and is working on a new film. She is already well-known for the critically-acclaimed film Give Me Liberty, a 2019 comedy-drama she produced and co-wrote with director Kirill Mikhanovsky. This film, shown at the Cannes Film Festival, won the John Cassavetes Award and was the critics’ favorite at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival.

While initially a Pacific Northwesterner, Austen studied creative writing under Seamus Heaney while at Harvard, where she received her JD, after which she moved to Brussels and lived on Place Brugmann.

In 2005, Alice left law to become a playwright, garnering numerous residencies and productions in the US and England. She is a past resident of the Royal Court Theatre and her internationally-produced plays include Animal Farm (Steppenwolf Theatre), Water, Cherry Orchard Massacre, and Girls in the Boat (Dramatic Publishing).
