Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I: The Mother and Daughter Who Changed History
Description
This is a recording of a live online event held on Wednesday 27 November 2024.
Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I are two of the most famous women in British history. Their stories are as familiar as they are compelling. And yet, they have never been told together.
Piecing together evidence from original documents and artefacts uncovered while researching her new book, bestselling historian and broadcaster Tracy Borman reveals Anne Boleyn’s relationship with, and influence over her daughter Elizabeth, the celebrated Virgin Queen. In so doing, she sheds new light on an extraordinary mother and daughter who changed the course of British history forever.
Tracy is joint Chief Curator of Historic Royal Palaces, Chief Executive of the Heritage Education Trust and Chancellor of Bishop Grosseteste University in her native Lincoln. She has presented a number of history programmes for Channel 5 and the Smithsonian Channel, including The Fall of Anne Boleyn, Inside the Tower of London and Henry VIII and the King’s Men. Tracy was recently awarded an OBE for services to heritage.
