The remarkable reknitting of their relationship in the 1810s offers a model of frank disagreement navigated through shared commitment to the American project. Dr. Kamensky will show how Monticello is sharing their complex history. She will also explain how museums\, historic sites\, and other community learning partners can help revitalize the ties that bind Americans as a people. \n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			About the Lecturer\n\n			\n		\n	\n\n\n\nDr. Jane Kamensky is President and CEO of Monticello/The Thomas Jefferson Foundation. She earned her BA (1985) and PhD (1993) in history from Yale University. She was the Jonathan Trumbull Professor of American History at Harvard University before moving to Monticello.
