Barry Bradford presents the fascinating life of journalist Dorothy Kilgallen who took the stories of Jack Ruby, Dr. Sam Sheppard, & more to her grave when she died mysteriously. Registration required.
You may remember her best as a game show panelist, but in this fascinating presentation you’ll learn how she was a pioneer for women in journalism – the first woman to be a murder reporter in the USA, how she was instrumental in getting a new trial for Dr. Sam Sheppard, and how she convinced Jack Ruby to tell her his story –to die mysteriously without revealing all she knew. Join lecturer Barry Bradford for a look into the life of Dorothy Kilgallen.
