1/21/21 A Virtual Trip Through Europe - With Laura Gellott and Helen Perry Curtis Online Class 

10am- 12 pm Online Class

ALL members will recall that Dr. Laura Gellott has several times talked about her book-in-progress about the life, times, and travels of Helen Perry Curtis. The book, “Helen Perry Curtis and the European Trip of a Lifetime,” was published in October 2020. 

In this presentation, we will follow Helen through the Europe of the 1930s: a time when travel was colorful and often glamorous, but also an era when Europe stood on the brink of profound challenge and change. 

Laura will also talk about some of the challenges and rewards encountered in bringing her book to publication.

ABOUT OUR PRESENTER: Our presenter (and one of our favorite historians) is Dr. Laura Gellott, Professor Emerita of History at UW-Parkside, where she served on the faculty for 30 years, chairing the History Department for 8 of those years. Dr. Gellott is a two-time recipient of UW-Parkside’s Stella Gray Teaching Excellence Award.  She received her B.A. and M.A. degrees from Marquette University and her Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dr. Gellott has traveled extensively in Europe. She brings passion and enthusiasm to her history classes and gladly shares them with ALL members.
