Program Description

Event Details

Maybe you’ve heard of some of Maryland’s most notorious crimes, such as the conspiracy to assassinate Abraham Lincoln or the murder of Sister Cathy, subject of the popular Netflix series, The Keepers. But what about some of its lesser-known misdeeds? And maybe you've heard some things about the Alger Hiss espionage case, but not that many of its scenes actually played out in Baltimore and other parts of Maryland. 

Join Caprice Di Liello and Lisa Greenhouse of the Enoch Pratt Free Library for a discussion of some of these shady characters and unfortunate episodes in our state's history.
