Anne Brontë: A Woman Of Courage weaves together excerpts from Anne's novels "Agnes Grey," and "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall," along with sections of her poems, letters and diary entries. Born in Thornton, in Yorkshire, England on January 17, 1820, Anne was the sixth and last child of Patrick and Maria Brontë. She is less celebrated in the literary pantheon than her sisters, Charlotte and Emily. On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Anne Brontë's birth, Joy Goodwin, representative of the American Chapter of the Brontë Society, in conjunction with with Miriam Canfield and Alida Rose Delaney are pleased to pay tribute to Anne Brontë's unique voice.
