In this podcast's first ever interview, Mama B. chats with Anna, a long time family friend with a compelling family history. After his capture and then release by the Union Army during the Civil War, Anna's paternal ancestor became a major Victorian era figure and businessman in Knoxville, Tennessee with a legacy that continues to this day. You are going to hear Anna's story of what it's like to be born into a prominent southern family and raised Jewish in one of the largest cities in the Appalachian south.
