On Fri., March 16, at noon, Dr. Lynne Iglitzin will present an illustrated talk, “Trail-Blazing Photojournalist: Margaret Bourke-White,” at the Woman’s Century Club, a 120-year-old social club founded by suffragist Carrie Chapman Catt.

The club meets in the parlor of the Harvard Exit Theater, 807 E. Roy. The presentation is open to the public; a $5 donation for lunch is suggested.
