Remembering Clarence Darrow, The Leopold and Loeb Files, evening program
6:00pm
An Intimate Look at One of America's Most Infamous Crimes.
The 1924 murder of fourteen-year-old Bobby Franks by Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, and their defense by Clarence Darrow, raised profound and disturbing questions about social class, criminal psychology, morality, justice, and mercy. Join Nina Barrett, author of "The Leopold and Loeb Files: An Intimate Look at One of America's Most Infamous Crimes," for a talk about why, ninety-five years later, these issues continue to haunt us-and remain relevant-today.
Note: Registration is requested for the program at The Newberry Library. http://darrowbridge.org
