Description:
|
(Special early showing: Noon)
Louisa May Alcott was no little woman,
and her life was no children's book;
her story is as full of incident,
surprise, and heroism as any plot she
invented. The daughter of improvident
educator Bronson Alcott, Louisa was
homeschooled by Ralph Waldo Emerson
and Henry David Thoreau, served as a
nurse in the Civil War, fought for
women's suffrage, and lived a secret
life as the author of lurid pulp
fiction until Little Women lifted her
and her family from rags to riches and
literary celebrity.
