From the wilds of Warren, Essex and Hamilton counties and  the wilderness of the Great North Woods to  Europe and New York City’s cosmopolitan life in the early 20th century, Jeanne Robert Foster was at home and fully immersed in her surroundings. Jeanne is a woman whose life and writings are honored by this show. Singer/actress/storyteller Eileen Egan Mack will portray Jeanne as she  shares readings, stories and songs revealing Jeanne's life in 19th century Adirondacks and her 'neighbors of yesterday.' Much of women's history has been hidden or unacknowledged.

This program is an opportunity to share Jeanne’s light and life in her beloved mountains and her life as she “set her feet to far off roads.” Be prepared to take a journey back in time.
