The Dead Ladies Show is a series of entertaining and inspiring talks about women who achieved amazing things against all odds, presented live in Berlin. This podcast is based on that series. Because women's history is everyone's history. In this episode, the last of DLSP Season One: Anne Lister excelled at many things traditionally thought to be within the purview of men in Regency era England, such as business, mountain climbing, and seducing scores of women, even marrying one. She left behind copious coded diaries that provide an unparalleled glimpse into her life. DLS-co-founder Katy Derbyshire, who recently translated the first in-depth biography of Anne Lister, called Gentleman Jack, tells us all about Anne's impressive life and list of ladies.
