Program Description
Event Details
They were women before their time, taking on the romantic, yet dangerous and physically
demanding job of tending to the beacons that protected the shoreline. In all, some 40 women have been identified who
excelled in this profession over the years — dating back as early as the 1840s and as recent as present day. Nearly 70
images of keepers, their families and their lights make up this presentation.
