Marie Curie's Legacy: An Afternoon with Dava Sobel
About
The acclaimed Pulitzer Prize finalist and New York Times bestselling author, Dava Sobel, has written a luminous chronicle of the life and work of Marie Curie, the most famous woman in the history of science, and the untold story of the many young women trained in her laboratory and were launched into stellar scientific careers of their own."Even now, nearly a century after her death, Marie Curie remains the only female scientist most people can name," writes Sobel. And yet, she makes clear, as brilliant and creative as she was in the laboratory, Marie Curie was equally passionate outside it.
Dava will speak with broadcaster and author Sarah Macdonald.
This event is a collaboration with Adelaide Writers Week with support from HarperCollins and the University of Newcastle.
