Born in Cambridge: 400 Years of Ideas and Inventions
Wednesday, October 12 7:00 PM

Cambridge, Massachusetts is a city of “firsts”: the first college in the English colonies, the first two-way long-distance call, the first legal same-sex marriage. Karen Weintraub and Michael Kuchta will discuss their co-authored book, Born in Cambridge: 400 Years of Ideas and Innovators, to share these stories and many others, chronicling cultural icons, influential ideas, and world-changing innovations that all came from one city of modest size across the Charles River from Boston. Register online.
