From One of Maria Mitchell’s Younger Fans
I think that I have mentioned before that in addition to “grown-up” professional research and archive requests, I also receive them from children and teenagers who are doing projects on Maria Mitchell. I am always happy to help and have been asked all sorts of questions.
What’s even more fun is when I see the results of their fantastic projects and when I receive letters like the one you see here. I received this a few weeks ago and its one of the more detailed letters I have received – and quite impressive. Typically, I don’t share them but this one has been altered in order to share.
I am hoping to meet with her class virtually in the spring so that I can meet with them inside the Mitchell House when it’s all set up for the season – and frankly, a bit warmer!
