Mabel Loomis Todd was labeled
a “woman of the world” for her
free-wheeling and passionate
embrace of life. An accomplished
journalist and naturalist, she also
held close confidence with one
of America’s most famed and
reclusive poets, Emily Dickinson,
and in fact was the first editor of
Dickinson’s poems. But Todd’s
story is largely lost to history in fa-
vor of a more marketable version
of the Dickinson legacy. Rebecca
Gilman brings to light Todd’s
lost story in a riveting look at a
mysterious, and perhaps even
dangerous, woman. Scandalous
revelations or reckless gossip—
you get to decide for yourself in
A Woman of the World this one-woman tour-de-force
starring the incomparable Sally
by Rebecca Gilman Edmundson.
