Disney Undressed

"Who's that walking down the street? Are they shovels or are they feet?" Get ready to dissect the lankiest lothario in Sleepy Hollow when I am joined by Dr. Elizabeth Bradley for a Halloween episode of Disney Undressed! In this episode we chat about Disney's 1949 version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the eclectically-attired townsfolk who Ichabod Crane encounters during his brief tenure as the town's schoolmaster. We talk about Sleepy Hollow's major players like the delicious "coquette" Katrina Van Tassel and the "boisterous" Brom Bones as well as a few daring characters in the periphery. Dr. Bradley is the Vice President of Programs and Engagement at Historic Hudson Valley in New York and the author of Knickerbocker: The Myth Behind New York and the editor of two Penguin Classic editions of Washington Irving's work.
