  Ms. Kaiser is the author of French War Brides: Mademoiselle & The American Soldier, WWII Voices: American GI’s and the French Women Who Married Them and Souvenirs de Vétérans.  Her non-fiction books related to WWII were inspired by personal interviews she conducted both in France and the U.S. 

  Please join us at a luncheon to hear about her research and writing of the stories of the diverse men and women who fought and lived through WWII. 

  James S.Dickey, Brigadier General, U.S. Army (Retired), wrote that Hilary had the wisdom to record their individual memories, and because of her, their stories will survive.

  Copies of WWII Voices and French War Brides will be available for purchase.

  Please join us for a guided visit (in English) of 

  Giacometti 

  at the Musée Maillol

  
  

  
  

  
  

  The Musée Maillol presents an overview of Giacometti's oeuvre, complemented by works by other major sculptors of his time.

  The exhibition will present more than 50 sculptures by the artist, all of which are from the Fondation Giacometti collection, complemented by around 25 works by other major artists such as Rodin, Bourdelle, Maillol, Despiau, Brancusi, Laurens, Lipchitz, Zadkine, Csaky, and Richier.

  Via a chronological and thematic itinerary, the exhibition highlight Giacometti’s relations with these artists at each stage of the development of his style. The itinerary thus shed new light on the little-known pre-war period: the first section of the exhibition is devoted to Giacometti’s early works, which still bear the influences of classical modernism (Despiau and Maillol), and then another larger section will be devoted to the discovery of the Parisian avant-garde artists after 1925 (Zadkine, Lipchitz, and Csaky).
