Program Description

Description

JOIN DR. WILLIAM THIERFELDER for a VIRTUAL LECTURE via ZOOM in the SAFETY and COMFORT of YOUR HOME

Fame is a fickle thing — it’s elusive, it teases, it comes, it goes. At its most mischievous, it arrives with aplomb after those seeking it have died. This program explores some household names like Melville, Bach, Van Gogh and Dickinson who were practically unknown in their lifetimes despite often prodigious effort and output.  None of them could have known just how famous they would become posthumously. How profound it is to consider what unknown legacy may await us after we’re gone. The takeaway? Never give up! 

Please be aware that there is no need to register more than once.

The link for the Zoom Meeting will be sent in your reminder email.
