ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
The Personal Librarian, a novel by Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray, tells the story of Belle da Costa Greene, a young woman who becomes J. P. Morgan's personal librarian in the early 1900s. Belle is brilliant and ambitious, but she harbors a secret: she is passing as white in a society rife with racial prejudice. The novel traces Belle’s rise in the elite world of art and rare books, her complex relationship with Morgan, and her internal struggles with the weight of her concealed identity. Her journey unfolds against a backdrop of historical events, including the emergence of modern art and the burgeoning women’s suffrage movement, offering insights into the social and cultural landscape of the Gilded Age.
