Ep 09: Sigrid Schultz, The Hero Left out of History Books
Update: 2024-11-13
Description
At the time of her death in 1980, Sigrid Schultz was known as a sweet—but fierce—little old lady who stood her ground against the Town of Westport which planned to bulldoze her home to make a parking lot. But Schultz' gumption ran deep—as a pioneering reporter turned spy working to uncover Nazi secrets during World War 2.
