Northern Exposure Column

I decided to call my column “Northern Exposure” to ensure it would encapsulate the wide breadth of the themes, cultures and people I tend to write about. I was asked to write a monthly column by the Editor of the Inter-County Leader newspaper in 2023 after he had attended some of my historical research presentations. The purpose of this column is to share previously unwritten histories and happenings from Northwestern Wisconsin and serve as a cultural pulse in a form of media that faces extinction. The Inter-County Leader is a subsidiary of the Inter-County Publishing Cooperative which was started in 1933. It is the last cooperatively owned newspaper in the United States.
