The Astonishing True Story of the Kopp Sisters with Amy Stewart 

Part of the “History Detectives” Series 

May 22 at 7 pm  

tinyurl.com/TheKoppSisters 

Join us to hear the true story of three extraordinary women: Constance, Norma, and Fleurette Kopp, women in law enforcement whose exploits as crime-fighters and detectives in Bergen County, New Jersey, made newspapers nationwide. The first woman deputy sheriff in the country, Constance Kopp, alongside her sisters Norma and Fleurette, are the real women behind Amy Stewart’s Kopp Sisters novels, starting with Girl Waits With Gun. In 2012, Stewart stumbled across a 1914 newspaper article about them and went on to uncover their amazing history through genealogical archives, court records, old newspapers, and interviews with family members. From their story and her painstaking research, she wrote a critically acclaimed series about the Kopp sisters and their adventures in crime-fighting. Stewart will take us into her research and writing process to bring history to life, and share photographs and stories about these remarkable women and the fascinating historical background that shaped their world a hundred years ago.
