Carol Simon Levin portrays Catharine "Caty" Greene, the indomitable wife of Nathanael Greene, one of Gen. George Washington's most valued officers. Known as a witty raconteur, she enlivened the spirits of officers and troops alike as the war ranged from New Jersey to South Carolina, famously dancing for 3 hours straight with George Washington. Her pluck and spirit carried her through victories and tragedies not only during the war but throughout a remarkable life of resilience and reinvention.
