Book 28!
A fascinating read about a powerhouse of a Woman! While this is fiction, it is based on the real life of this Woman, and I cannot wait to read her Biography!

Book cover for the Belle da Costa Greene exhibition at the Morgan Library in New York. It shows a quarter-length portrait of Greene in left profile. She is a lighter-skin Black woman in her 30s. Her hair is gathered back, exposing her face, neck, and shoulders. She wears an elegantly-trimmed dress that covers her shoulders.
If you can’t make it to the Morgan’s exhibition about Belle da Costa Greene (now through May 4), the accompanying catalog provides a beautiful exploration of her life and many accomplishments.

Just saw this great exhibit on #BelleDaCostaGreene, born into an eminent Black family in DC, who passed as white & became 1st Director of the Morgan Library. A complex story of race, color, class, gender — and her broad vision as a curator of medieval manuscripts.
