Exhibiting Home Truths artist Ann Fessler, who has created multiple works connected to her experience as an adoptee, will screen her film and respond to questions from the audience. A Girl Like Her reveals the hidden history of over a million young American women who became pregnant in the 1950s and 60s and were banished to maternity homes to give birth, surrender their children, and return home alone.
