We will have a very special in person guest speaker, Liz Philosophos Cooper, former JASNA President. Liz was JASNA President from 2018-2022. Liz is a second-generation JASNA member who fell in love with Austens work as a high school student. A member of JASNA since 1992, she served as JASNAs Vice-President for Regions for six years starting in 2012 and Regional Coordinator of Wisconsin before that. A popular speaker, she has been a contributing writer to Jane Austens Regency World and co-edits Wisconsin Regions A Year with Jane Austen calendar. Her talk from the Washington DC AGM, The Apothecary and the Physician: Emmas Mr. Perry was published in Persuasions 38.

Liz will present her talk Jane Austen: Working Woman I must keep to my own style & go on in my own Way.

Jane Austen was a working woman and determined professional writer. This illustrated talk will explore Austens involvement in the business of publishing novels during a time of rampant financial instability. The Austen family were active participants in both war and finance and these two sectors intertwined in the story of Jane Austens writing and publishing.
