Your Family, Your Story: Genealogy Holds Promise for the Future of Stories

Romance. Suspense. Adventure. Great stories lie buried in your family’s past. Genealogy is the second-most popular hobby in America. How can you find your family’s story? And what do you with it once you learn it?

We’ll be talking with Anne Norton, a research librarian and educator who specializes in investigating the stories of the families of people routinely absent from official records such as textile workers, African Americans, women, children, and the poor. She’ll be joining bestselling romantic suspense novelist Elizabeth Goddard whose most recent work Never Let Go features a forensic genealogist.
