Tonight’s episode of the Brook Reading Podcast highlights the lives of three maverick women who have paved the way for the modern woman, Edith Clarke, Emma Willard, and Marie Severin.

I also implore you to help in any way you can to the victims of Hurricane Ida in Louisiana and New Jersey. In the show notes this evening, I have included links for the Red Cross, Project Hope, as well as my cousin Sarah’s GoFundMe (she and her family lost their home due to the storm). If you can share the links, donate, or help in any way, that would be amazing. Thank you so much. Happy Reading!
