Professor Anna Birch discusses the legacy then and now of Mary Wollstonecraft (born 27 April 1759, and died 10 September 1797). Wollstonecraft came to Newington Green in 1784 to set up a girls' school, and made connections with the many dissenters in the area. She became Britain’s first Feminist and her famous book A Vindication of the Rights of Woman 1792 continues to resonate.
Anna is a theatre director and academic fascinated by the power of feminist performance to produce new ways of thinking. Mary Wollstonecraft lived and worked on Newington Green near where Anna lives inspiring numerous performance and film events worldwide produced by her company Fragments & Monuments: http://fragmentsandmonuments.com/
