DESCRIPTION:Public lecture from musicologist/pianist Samantha Ege.\n\nNora 
 Douglas Holt remade the world in her own image\, radiating and relishing B
 lack women’s ingenuity in all that she touched. Composer\, philosopher\,
  Jazz-Age icon\, Harlem Renaissance muse\, social activist\, and pleasure 
 seeker: Holt was all these things and more. In 1918\, she became the first
  person of African descent in the United States to attain a master of musi
 c degree\, and throughout the Roaring Twenties both personal scandals and 
 professional triumphs kept her in the headlines. A contemporary of Florenc
 e Price and a friend of Josephine Baker\, Holt was an omnipresent figure i
 n both classical music and popular culture. In this talk\, musicologist an
 d pianist Samantha Ege traces the multifaceted musical socialite's tangled
  beginnings and illustrious career.
