The Butte-Silver Bow Public Archives continues its programming for the exhibit “William Clark and the Art of the Gilded Age” at 4 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 12, at the Clark Chateau, 321 W. Broadway St, with a book discussion and presentation with Bill Dedman, author of the New York Times bestselling book “Empty Mansions.”
"Empty Mansions'' is a nonfiction mystery of wealth and loss — and a secretive heiress named Huguette Clark. Dedman is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American journalist and co-author of the No. 1 New York Times bestselling biography “Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune.” Dedman uncovered the case of the reclusive copper heiress Huguette Clark in 2010, documenting her life in a series of reports for NBC News.
“William Clark and the Art of the Gilded Age” is sponsored by Butte-Silver Bow Archives, the University of Montana’s Montana Museum of Art and Culture, and Humanities Montana.
