GENOA – The Genoa Public Library has planned a week of interesting history events, touching on Hollywood history, pioneers and a famous First Lady.

• On Wednesday, Feb. 20, meet former First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln. Laura F. Keyes is a historical interpreter who beautifully portrays the tragic and compelling life of Mrs. Lincoln. The presentation is set on April 14, 1865, as Mrs. Lincoln prepares for an evening with her husband and friends at the theater.

Keyes’ presentation has been meticulously developed and promises to make the audience feel as if they’re hearing directly from Abraham Lincoln’s wife.
