Come along on the Hunt
A live investigation into a manuscript that shouldn’t exist — plus the women history filed under someone else’s name. New chapters weekly, free.
Warm, vivid, and grounded in real documents — Jill’s talks leave audiences seeing familiar history with new eyes, and asking who else has been left out of the frame.
How history erases women — and how we get them back. A behavioral‑science detective story using real manuscripts and archival discoveries.
Custodians, makers, and the architecture of memory — the unnamed women who decided what survived, drawn from Jill’s Bourbon‑court research.
The Revolutionary‑era women we were never taught, from Abigail Adams to Mercy Otis Warren. Vivid, evidence‑rich, and built for libraries, societies, and universities.
“Jill conducted a three‑hour walking tour for the Valentine based on her book Daughters of Stone & Grace, keeping the audience engaged the entire time — moving stories of resilience and knowledgeable insights, while fielding questions from participants throughout. She met our needs entirely, and we would gladly invite her back.”
