S5E4 The Dragon from Chicago: Sigrid Schultz

  • Summary

  • In this episode Kelsie interviews Pamela Toler about her new book, The Dragon From Chicago: The Untold Story of an American Reporter in Nazi Germany. Toler tells the inspiring story of foreign correspondent Sigrid Schultz. At a time when women reporters rarely wrote front page stories, Schultz regularly scooped her male counterparts on major news events. She worked her way around glass ceilings. She kept the news flowing despite tightening controls on the media. She outwitted Nazis in Germany, stood up against pro-Nazi sympathizers at home, and fought against “fake news” on both sides of the Atlantic. Her fellow foreign correspondents admitted that she knew more about what was going on behind the scenes than any other American reporter in Berlin. You can find her book at Penguin Random House.
