The General’s Ladies of the Historic General Dodge House proudly present the 2025 Fall Tea.

The Black Angel, sculpted by Daniel Chester French, stands as a memorial to Ruth Anne Dodge, wife of General Grenville M. Dodge, and mother of three daughters.  There is more to this beautiful sculpture than many are aware of …  America’s first supermodel, Audrey Munson.

“What becomes of the artists’ models?” Audrey Munson asked plaintively a century ago. “Where is she now, this model who was so beautiful? What has been her reward? Is she happy and prosperous, or is she sad and forlorn, her beauty gone, leaving only memories in the wake?”

Join us to learn the dark story behind the Council Bluffs Black Angel:  Beauty, Murder, Insanity, and Art
Presented by Thomas Emmett III.
