At our June meeting, we will watch the

“Ayn Rand & U.S. History 1930 – 1950,” which portrays Rand within
the context of history, aired last month. Viewers can see an abundance

early in her career, as well as interviews and video clips. There are
extensive interviews with Jeff Britting, the curator of the Ayn Rand
Archives, and Eric Daniels, a political historian from Duke University. The
host, Connie Doebele Brod, also interviews Leonard Peikoff.
Join us on Saturday, June 15, at 8
