Lillian D. Wald: Progressive Activist

Clare Coss’s one-woman play, closely based on Wald’s writing, conveys the personal moments that made her public contributions a lasting mandate for social change. Wald’s speeches, letters and leaflets are also included, highlighting Wald’s antiwar activities and her deep concern for the rights of labor. Coss’s introduction and notes on the documents place the documents and the events of the play in context.
