Founding Mothers by Cokie Roberts
We are back to our regular schedule which means we'll be meeting on Monday, July 23rd at 7:30 pm in the Church Lounge.
At our last meeting I mentioned that I thought I hadn't been able to find much when I looked for sites related to Cokie Roberts but as you now can see, I was clearly wrong.
First we have her NPR Bio which sums up the basics nicely. Then there's her page at the Harry Walker Agency where she's on contract as a lecturer and here's her 1994 Commencement Speech from Wellesley College.
I also found several resources specific to Founding Mothers.
- Women of Influence: A Conversation with Cokie Roberts - This is an interview with Bruce Cole, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, regarding Founding Mothers.
- There's also an interview at beliefnet focused on Founding Mothers.
- Here's an online copy of the Reading Group Guide.
- A very brief interview in U.S. News and World Report that's definitely on the lighter side.
- If you have an hour to spare (I know, I'm funny, right?) check out Robert's conversation with Margaret Carlson hosted by the National Constitution Center. I tried the audio only version and it works pretty well - as usual with the internet, the faster your connection the better the quality.
I think that's enough to get us started - if you find something else either post it in the comments or send me an e-mail!
