Did you know that the key women’s suffrage debates in Princeton happened not in 1920 (when the 19th amendment was ratified), but five years earlier in 1915? Historical Society of Princeton curator Stephanie Schwartz presents a detailed exploration of HSP’s new digital exhibition “Princeton and Women’s Suffrage: “The Greatest Question of the Day.” This illustrated talk will peek behind the scenes at the exhibition research process and feature some additional tales and images that did not make the exhibition’s final cut.
