The Lorraine Beitler Collection of the Dreyfus Affair Distinguished Lecture Series

In 2002, Dr. Lorraine Beitler donated a collection of over 1,000 items documenting the history of the Alfred Dreyfus affair and its impact on the art, society, and politics of France and the modern world.

A few years later, Dr. Beitler and her husband, Martin, established the Lorraine Beitler Lecture Fund to serve as a catalyst for the examination of the issues of prejudice and intolerance. The first lecture was held in 2007, and lectures have been presented on an annual or semi-annual basis since then.
