Mini: The Undercover Botanist

  • Summary

  • In 1767, a young French servant sailed around the world, collecting plants previously unknown to Western science. The ship’s crew knew the servant as “Jean,” the scrappy aide to the expedition’s botanist. But “Jean” had a secret. She was actually Jeanne Baret, a woman disguised as a man—and she was about to make botanical history.

    Annie and Elah told this story for a live audience at On Air Fest a few weeks ago.
