SUMMARY:From Survivor to Visionary: The Baroness Pontalba in Paris and New Orleans
DESCRIPTION:Registration and more information available at: https://www.afusa.org/event-rsvp/from-survivor-to-visionary-the-baroness-pontalba-in-paris-and-new-orleans/ \nBorn in the French Quarter of New Orleans and married into French aristocracy\, Micaëla Almonester de Pontalba lived a remarkable life between two worlds. Her journey carried her from nineteenth-century New Orleans to the Château de Mont-l’Évêque\, where a troubled marriage and a shocking act of violence tested the limits of her courage. She survived\, returned to New Orleans\, and transformed the city with the celebrated Pontalba Apartments that still frame Jackson Square. \nDrawing upon the research behind The Blood of the Baroness\, authors Rory O’Neill Schmitt\, PhD and Rosary O’Neill\, PhD\, explore Micaëla’s resilience\, her French-American identity\, and the enduring cultural conversation between France and New Orleans.
