Zander sherman biography of abraham

Last week all the ECW women were invited to a Zoom call to chat about research, ideas, and a variety of other topics related to historian/researcher experiences. As part of the meeting, they answered a few questions with the willingness to share the answers on the blog for Women’s History Month.

We hope you enjoy reading the results of the Q&A with Sheritta Bitikofer, Meg Groeling, JoAnna McDonald, Kristen Trout,Cecily Nelson Zander, and Sarah Kay Bierle. We also want to give a quick shout-out to Caroline Davis and Paige Gibbons-Backus who were not able to join the call, but have been sharing their research or digital expertise in a variety of ways.

Sarah took and transcribed notes while hosting the meeting. With one exception, all answers are written in the order they were shared, and everyone took turns answering in various orders on the Zoom screen.

Who is someone you considered a role model as you were growing up?

JoAnna: I had a professor who could swear and was feminine and awesome! Historically speaking, though, I saw Ulysses S. Grant as a role model — hard hitter, winner.

Kristen: My Dad is one of my role models with his love of Civil War history, especially in Missouri. Grant and Sherman…because they overcame great challenges. Clara Barton and female soldiers also inspired me. How women were so courageous and fearless and broke stigmas of the era—getting to the battlefield to support and fight for war.

Cecily: Laura Ingalls Wilder through the Little House books was definitely a role model when I was growing up. Also, my parents who willingly took me to historic sites. Professionally, I see Carol Reardon and Caroline Janney as role models.
