NYC’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade, a Women’s History Month Celebration, and an Inside Look of Jason Morris’ New Novel

Tonight, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is holding its 19th annual event celebrating women's history month. The event honors women who break boundaries and create lasting change in the arts, education, and government. WFUV’s Alexandra Pfau has more. New York City’s St. Patrick’s Day parade is older than the United States itself. But each year, people are still coming out to celebrate. WFUV’s Jordan Donegan and Xenia Gonikberg report on the festivities. Family history, mental health, and the search for meaning shape a new novel, Another Kind of Fire, by Fordham biology professor Jason Morris. For our Fordham Conversations Series, Morris spoke with WFUV’s Jay Doherty about the inspiration behind the book.
