Angelo State University’s Dr. Arnoldo De Leon Department of History is slated to host its fourth annual Lone Star Lecture series on March 27, with this year’s installment featuring a presentation on Texas’ legendary Lady in Blue. According to ASU, the lecture will be held in the Houston Harte University Center’s C.J. Davidson Conference Center, located at 1910 Rosemont Drive, at 6 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. The presentation, titled “La Dama Azul: How the Story of a Bilocating Nun Travelled the Indigenous Highways of the Southwest,” will be given by Dr. Juliana Barr, an associate professor of history at Duke University. ASU said Barr “will discuss the story of the legendary Lady in Blue, a 17th-century Spanish nun said to have appeared to members of the Jumano tribe, who lived in present-day Texas.”
