SUMMARY:Barbara Lounsberry: Nancy Drew; Iowa's Heroine to the World
DESCRIPTION:Nancy Drew: Iowa’s Heroine to the WorldNancy Drew is the most popular female detective in fiction. Few know\, however\, that Nancy is an Iowa heroine and that her creator was Mildred Augustine of Ladora. Nancy Drew and Mildred Augustine are extraordinary role models for Iowa girls and boys\, women and men. An academic pioneer (the first woman to earn a master’s degree from the University of Iowa’s School of Journalism)\, Augustine earned six airplane pilots’ licenses\, including one for sea-planing\, wrote 130 stories for young people and wrote her newspaper column\, “On the Go\,” until her death at age 98. Augustine wrote in the first Nancy Drew volume\, The Secret of the Old Clock\, published in 1930\, “Nancy Drew took pride in the fertility of her state and saw beauty in a crop of waving green corn as well as in the rolling hills and the expanse of prairie land.” This program\, with lots of images\, is meant to inspire young and old.

SUMMARY:David Connon: Josiah Bushnell Grinnell and the Iowa Underground Railroad
DESCRIPTION:Josiah Bushnell Grinnell and the Iowa Underground Railroad“Preacher\,” “congressman\,” “negro-stealer”: Josiah Bushnell Grinnell was called all of those things during his life. He was called a negro-stealer because he participated in the Iowa Underground Railroad. J.B. Grinnell and other Grinnell residents helped at least 37 fugitive slaves who passed through their town before the Civil War. But some residents opposed this work. David Connon will tell a story of racism\, noble actions and conflict. He will highlight abolitionist John Brown’s visit to Grinnell\, and Grinnell’s first riot over the presence of fugitive slaves in the public school.

SUMMARY:Rosa Snyder: Off the Map
DESCRIPTION:Off the Map: Stories of Abandoned and Disappearing Towns Around IowaThousands of towns and communities were established during Iowa’s pioneer and railroad era. In some instances\, they were small towns built around the time of the height of a coal industry that just could not thrive while others supplemented the needs of the countless farmers\, and still others were established for very different reasons. Many existed for a few years\, some slowly faded away over time\, and a few never existed except as “paper” towns. Regardless of why they originated or why they diminished\, each community has its own unique story. Towns are truly windows to our past and have helped form the history of our state. Discovering and learning about them helps to keep their names and memories from oblivion. Take a tour around Iowa exploring a sampling of these idiosyncratic communities in photographs and stories.
