11/21/23 Dr. Laura Gellott on Helen Perry Curtis

In a change from our published schedule, we're sharing an interview with Dr. Laura Gellott, UW-Parkside Professor Emeritus of History, talking about her book "Helen Perry Curtis and the European Trip of a Lifetime." As a young girl, Gellott read Helen Perry Curtis's classic book "Jean and Company, Unlimited," the story of a young American girl's first trip to Europe; the book was arguably one of the most beloved children's books of its day. Gellott's book is an illuminating biography of the author.
