Are you familiar with the Sir Francis Drake scam and the Iowa man who perpetrated it? Have you heard of the 17-year-old Iowa girl who saved a train full of passengers? Or the Cedar Rapids sisters who became famous by allowing food to be thrown at them while they performed? Did you know the Monuments Men were led by an Iowan?
Iowa’s history is full of wonderful and not-so-wonderful people. Join Iowa historical fiction author, Ann Hanigan Kotz, as she takes you back in history to learn about some of these forgotten people. You can also play along with her in an Iowa trivia competition and perhaps win a prize for your extensive Iowa knowledge.
