Our Stories: Caring for Many - Arizona Humanitarians in History

Kick off our Summer Reading Challenge with some new Arizona stories about which to read!  Historian and author Jim Turner shares the stories of six of the many kind and caring people Arizona has been blessed with over the past four centuries. These humanitarians include missionary and cattleman Father Eusebio Kino; Nellie Cashman, “The Miners’ Angel”; Oliver Comstock, tuberculosis caregiver, Maria Luisa Urquides, the “Mother of Bilingual Education”; Lincoln Ragsdale, Phoenix civil rights pioneer; and Annie Wauneka Dodge, Navajo health care champion. Turner will provide a suggested reading list on the topic to attendees.

Registration is appreciated, and drop-ins are welcome.
