We are delighted to welcome you to our 1oth seasons of Wilde Readings at Queen Takes Book, featuring authors Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson and Danuta Hinc and you!
Host: Ann Bracken
Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson
Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson is the author of the critically-acclaimed book Claire McCardell: The Designer Who Set Women Free, which came out in June from Simon & Schuster. Named a New York Times Editors’ Choice, an Amazon Editor’s pick for Best History, and a must-read book featured in Oprah Daily, The Atlantic, Elle, Forbes, Harper’s Bazaar, and on NPR’s All Things Considered, among many others, the book has been hailed as an exceptional biography and an essential read that “puts the American fashion icon Claire McCardell back in the pantheon,” according to The New York Times Book Review.
Danuta Hinc
Danuta Hinc is a Polish American novelist and essayist, author of When We Were Twins, praised by Kirkus Reviews as “a subtle psychological snapshot of radicalization.” Her work has appeared in Literary Hub, Washingtonian, Popula, and Consequence Magazine. She holds an M.A. from the University of Gdańsk and an M.F.A. from Bennington College. A recipient of the Barry Hannah Merit Scholarship, she is a Principal Lecturer in English at the University of Maryland.
