On Friday evening at Clinton Academy in East Hampton, the East Hampton Historical Society held the second lecture of its Winter Lecture Series, hosted by Executive Director Richard Barons. During “An Octet With Vision,” Hugh King, Ken Collum, Bess Rattray and Mary Foster Morgan spoke about eight women whose individual wisdom and foresight had a huge impact on the cultural and social lives of East Hampton residents and visitors. Guests relived history through photos, drawings, post cards and news clippings.
