Historic women topic of Zelie library event
The Zelienople Area Public Library will host its second speaker event of the year Feb. 16 with a talk from an attorney-turned-author whose works highlight the often concealed accomplishments of women throughout history.
Marie Benedict, whose most recent book, “Her Hidden Genius,” discusses Rosalind Franklin — who as a fellow at King’s College London contributed heavily to the discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA, but whose work largely went unrecognized during her lifetime — will speak at 7 p.m. Feb. 16 at the Steamfitters Technology Center, 230 Wise Road in Jackson Township.
The talk will be the second iteration of the library’s 2022 “Zelienople Library Presents,” its arts-and-culture speaker series.
