About this event

What transforms an ordinary man into an enduring symbol of courage and sacrifice? Historian Kevin M. Levin presents his new biography of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, A Glorious Fate: The Life and Legacy of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, tracing Shaw’s transformation from reluctant volunteer to Union martyr and the enduring legacy of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry.

This program will take place in the Frances and Craig Lindner Center for Culture and Leadership, directly across the street from Ford’s Theatre.
