Jung, will be making an appearance at on Monday, April 14 at 1:30 pm and 3:30
pm at the Hays-Heighe House @ Harford Community College, Room 201.



Clara Barton, a Civil

time.  According to Ms. Jung, she “overcame
both personal obstacles and society’s narrow view of women’s roles to pursue
her heart’s work.”  Ms. Jung’s
interactive one-woman show encourages audience participation and is both
engrossing and entertaining.  She has
appeared on CNN, The Today Show and Good Morning, America.  In addition, Ms. Jung has performed at the
National Theatre of Washington, the Folger Shakespeare Library, Port Discovery
Children’s Museum, and the National Museum of Civil War Medicine.



Clara
