Join Storyteller Carol Simon Levin as she brings to life Emily Warren Roebling, a remarkable woman who played a pivotal role in the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge, hailed as the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” Beyond her bridge legacy, she designed her family mansion, studied law, organized relief for returning Spanish-American War troops, and enjoyed tea with Queen Victoria. Once called “the most famous woman in New Jersey,” her story remains largely forgotten.
