They specialized in singing the praises of criminals who could capture the public’s imagination through a bold prison break\, a brazen break-in\, a terrifying and deadly encounter\, and a tearful repentance in the shadow of the gallows. The modern newsroom adage that if it bleeds it leads draws its inspiration from these tales … as did (and do) a host of novels and detective stories. \nJoin us as Nora Davies recounts the story in a generously illustrated program. Nora will be coming to us from Smith College in Northampton\, Massachusetts. As a digital asset specialist Davies provides instruction on copyright\, cataloging\, image research\, editing\, and more. Worry not\, Chicagoans\, Nora’s Midwest bona fides include an English degree from nearby Beloit College and an MLIS from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. \nCozy up to Zoom and be transported to the crowded\, noisy streets of London. But don’t worry about pickpockets or cutpurses … we’ll keep your reservation safe! \nLive attendance and optional lunch \nView Zoom program on eighth floor\, Steel Room\, Union League Club. Presentation begins at 12:00 PM CT. Optional lunch immediately following in the fourth floor Rendezvous. $35 includes non-alcoholic beverage\, a cup of soup\, and your choice of sandwich\, salad\, or hot entree\, tax\, and tip. \nZoom presentation is free and open to all. \nZoom begins at 12:00PM CT/1:00 PM ET. Preregistration required via website.
