Come to the GBH Studio at the Boston Public Library to learn about Fly With Me — a new film from American Experience. Debra Adams Simmons will be joining us to interview special guests American Experience Executive Producer Cameo George and Fly With Me writer and director Sarah Colt.

Fly With Me tells the story of the pioneering women who became flight attendants at a time when single women were unable to order a drink, eat alone in a restaurant, own a credit card or get a prescription for birth control. The job offered unheard-of opportunities for travel and independence. These women were on the frontlines of the battle to assert gender equality and transform the workplace.
