207. Book and Dagger: Yale Professors Become Successful WWII Spies

  In her new book, Book and Dagger, How Scholars and Librarians Became the Unlikely Spies of the World, Dr. Elyse Graham tells the story of academics, like Yale literature professor Joseph Curtis, who hunted down German spies and turned them into double agents, and Sherman Kent, a Yale history professor who rose to become the head of analysis for all of Europe and Africa.   At the start of World War II, the United States found itself in desperate need of an intelligence agency. The Office of Strategic Services (OSS), a precursor to today's CIA, was quickly formed—and in an effort to fill its ranks with experts, the OSS turned to academia for recruits. Suddenly, literature professors, librarians, and historians were training to perform undercover operations and investigative work-and these surprising spies would go on to profoundly shape both the course of the war and the future CIA with their efforts.   This episode's guest is Dr. Elyse Graham, professor in the English Department at Stony Brook University and the author of four books. Dr.Graham is available for book talks-find the link to her website here:     https://www.elyse-graham.com/   -------------------------------------------------- Like Grating the Nutmeg?

  Last year in episode 186, we talked about Grove Street Cemetery's pioneering role as the first planned cemetery in the country. The design of Grove Street Cemetery in New Haven in the 1790s used several of the features that became standard, like family plots and established walkways.   Today, we're going to move the clock forward and discuss the rural cemetery movement of the 19th century with Cedar Hill Cemetery in Hartford as a signature example.   Established in 1864, Cedar Hill Cemetery encompasses 270 acres of landscaped woodlands, waterways, and memorial grounds. The urban oasis serves as a sanctuary for Connecticut history, impressive funerary art, and natural beauty. In this episode, Host Mary Donohue interviews Beverly Lucas, Director of the Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation. The Foundation is the non-profit that raises money for the restoration of the monuments and also hosts many events and guided tours.  Be sure to follow the Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation on Facebook and Instagram to find out about upcoming programs.   ----------------------------------------------------- Wesleyan Press book offer!

The New Haven Museum staff and their community partners have reinterpreted the Amistad story in an exhibition that takes a new angle on the familiar story of the Amistad.   The 1839 Amistad Revolt was led by 53 West African captives who were being trafficked from Havana's slave markets on the schooner La Amistad after being kidnapped from their homeland. For nearly 19 months in New Haven, the Amistad captives worked closely with anti-slavery activists who formed the Amistad Committee and connected with networks of engaged citizens to organize and fundraise for their legal defense.   The New Haven Museum exhibition, “Amistad: Retold,” centers the people who led the 1839 revolt and their collective actions to determine their own lives. It also focuses on New Haven as the site of their incarceration and abolitionist organizing.    My guests for this episode are award-winning historian, writer, and filmmaker Dr. Marcus Rediker, Distinguished Professor of Atlantic History at the University of Pittsburgh, and Joanna Steinberg, the New Haven Museum's Director of Learning and Engagement.

Rising sea levels and climate-driven flooding are reshaping the global economy, with major implications for the U.S. housing market and the global economy. As millions of homes face increased risk, mortgage defaults could surge, home values may plummet, and financial instability could spread worldwide. Governments will soon need large-scale strategies to relocate coastal populations and manage mounting disaster relief costs.In this episode, we explore how climate change threatens financial stability and whether the U.S. is facing another housing market bubble.

Grandpa Bill's Grunts & Groans Aromatherapy: A History with Nutmeg Aromatherapy, the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefits, has a rich history dating back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans utilized aromatic plants for various purposes, including medicine, cosmetics, and religious rituals. While nutmeg's use in aromatherapy is not as widespread as some other oils, it has a place in this history. Ancient Uses: Egypt: The Egyptians, known for their sophisticated use of aromatics, likely incorporated nutmeg into their blends for perfumes and incense. They valued its warming and stimulating properties. Greece and Rome: Ancient Greek and Roman physicians, including Hippocrates, documented the medicinal uses of nutmeg. They believed it could aid digestion and alleviate pain. Medieval and Renaissance: Trade Routes: During the Middle Ages, nutmeg became a valuable commodity traded along the Silk Road. It was used in both culinary and medicinal practices. European Herbalists: Herbalists like Hildegard of Bingen recognized nutmeg's potential for treating digestive issues and nervous disorders. Modern Aromatherapy: Nutmeg Essential Oil: Today, nutmeg essential oil is used in aromatherapy for its warming, stimulating, and uplifting properties. It is often used in blends to address fatigue, muscle aches, and digestive discomfort. Emotional Well-being: Nutmeg oil is also believed to have a positive effect on mood, helping to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Important Note: Nutmeg essential oil should be used with caution, as it contains compounds that can be toxic in high doses. It is always best to consult with a qualified aromatherapist before using any essential oil, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any underlying health conditions. #aromatherapy, #nutmeg,#essentialoils,#naturalremedies,#wellness,#history,#ancientwisdom, The Aromatic History of Nutmeg: A Journey Through Time Nutmeg in Aromatherapy: A Warming and Uplifting Tradition Exploring the Therapeutic Uses of Nutmeg Essential Oil From Ancient Egypt to Modern Wellness: The Story of Nutmeg in Aromatherapy The Power of Nutmeg: A Natural Remedy for Mind and Body BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Virtual Mall Host and Moderator-Grandpa Bill:Website: https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill    https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill/share/p386dYouTube: Bill Holt@billholt8792Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/bill.sales.524Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/bradybrodyboy12/E-mail Message Board: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bhsalesDisclaimer: This content is provided for informational purposes only and does not intend to substitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.    The Maine Virtual Mall: A free platform for repeat guests of Grandpa Bill's show.

  After a campaign initiated by schoolchildren, Prudence Crandall was designated the Connecticut State Heroine by the Connecticut General Assembly on Oct. 1, 1995. You may not know Connecticut has a state heroine, or you might have some inkling that Crandall was maybe a spinster Quaker schoolmarm, who had an unsuccessful school in the hinterlands of eastern Connecticut.  Founded in 1833, the Crandall Academy educated more than two dozen Black women during its eighteen-month existence. In this episode we'll hear how a trio of like-minded women helped to get the academy off the ground, and the tremendous impact the school had in its short existence.   Many of the Black women who attended the Canterbury Female Academy went on to be teachers, activists, and leaders in the Black community. Likewise, the important white and Black Abolitionists drawn to the struggle in Canterbury made lasting contributions across the decades leading to emancipation.   The story of the Canterbury Female Academy is replete with courtroom dramas and vigilante attacks, bravery in the face of opposition, and the noble work of pursuing education despite constant insult and threat. It is a story of inter-racial cooperation and women's actions that we as Americans need to know, now more than ever. The initiative for the Academy came from women, Black and white, and its continuity was nurtured by support from the students' families and a growing white female Abolitionist movement.   Mary Donohue talks to Dr. Jennifer Rycenga about her new book Schooling the Nation, The Success of the Canterbury Academy for Black Women, published in 2025 by the University of Illinois Press.  Dr. Jennifer Rycenga is a professor emerita of comparative religious studies and humanities at San Jose State University.   Dr. Rycenga is available for book talks and lectures, both remotely and in-person.  Her contact email is jennife.rycenga@sjsu.edu   Her author page on Amazon is here: https://us.amazon.com/stores/Jennifer-Rycenga/author/B06XJRSDV7?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true   Her book can be ordered from the University of Illinois Press here: https://www.press.uillinois.edu/books/?id=p088377   Interested in visiting the Prudence Crandall Museum where today's story took place?

In this episode, Host Mary Donohue talks to Griffin Dunne, actor, producer and director and now New York Times best-selling author about his family memoir The Friday Afternoon Club. His Hartford to Hollywood family includes generations of writers, movie producers, journalists, and actors including his father Dominick Dunne, uncle John Gregory Dunne, and aunt Joan Didion.   This prominent family dynasty has part of its roots in Irish-American Connecticut, coming from Ireland to Derby and Hartford. Irish Catholics, unwelcome in Protestant Connecticut from the jump in the 1820s, nevertheless made Connecticut  home. In this episode, Dunne shares stories about family figures such as Hartford's Dominick Burns, a self-made man who immigrated from Ireland at age 11 and became a business owner and bank president. And Dr. Edwin Dunne, a Harvard-trained surgeon, who was the grandson of an Irish immigrant and the son of a machinist at the Farrell Foundry and Machine Company in Ansonia. And we don't forget the Hollywood part of the story either with Dunne's vivid memories of his father's life as a movie producer and crime journalist!   Our thanks again to Griffin Dunne for joining us for this episode.

De Mortuis (De Mortuis) es un relato de terror psicológico del escritor inglés John Collier (1901-1980), publicado originalmente en la edición del 18 de julio de 1942 en el periódico The New Yorker, y luego reeditado en la antología de 1943: Un toque de nuez moscada y más relatos improbables (The Touch of Nutmeg and More Unlikely Stories). De Mortuis narra la historia del doctor Rankin, quien trabaja cubriendo con cemento el suelo del sótano de su casa, cuando es visitado inesperadamente por dos amigos, quienes comienzan a hacer conjeturas. SPOILERS. Tras deducir que el doctor Rankin efectivamente se deshizo de su esposa y la enterró bajo el cemento del sótano, sus amigos le aseguran que permanecerán en silencio. De hecho, parecen justificar el crimen, habida cuenta que Irene era una mujer con muy mala reputación. Es así que comienzan a contarle muchas cosas que el doctor no sabía sobre ella, por ejemplo, que ambos mantuvieron relaciones con ella, así como prácticamente todos los hombres jóvenes del pueblo. Los dos amigos elaboran una coartada para proteger al doctor, hasta ahora, en absoluto silencio acerca de aquellas especulaciones. Dirán que vieron a Irene yéndose del pueblo con un sujeto. A nadie le asombrará, y nadie hará preguntas incómodas ante la ausencia de la mujer. Aquí, De Mortuis de John Collier realiza una maniobra magistral: los amigos se retiran, una vez que el plan ha sido acordado, y pocos minutos después aparece Irene. Naturalmente, el doctor Rankin tendrá una visión bastante diferente de su esposa cuando ella regresa. El título en latín del cuento, De Mortuis, significa «sobre los muertos», y proviene de una frase de Diogenes Laercio (para otros, de Chilon de Esparta): De mortuis nil nisi bonum, que significa: «sobre los muertos sólo dí algo bueno». Esto hace referencia a la imprudente verborragia de aquellos dos amigos, quienes inadvertidamente ponen al doctor en conocimiento de la mala reputación de su esposa.

The global world is in the midst of economic uncertainty, shifting workplace dynamics and vast technological change - in no other sector are leaders facing more rapid and substantial challenges than technology. As we look ahead to a new year, recalibrating strategies and setting intentions for success will help tech leaders remain focused, as they set the tone for yet another transformative period. New Year Resolutions for Tech Leaders in 2025 Here are four resolutions that every tech leader should consider this year: Make AI Work For Sustainability AI has huge potential to do good, but when it comes to sustainability, the challenge is clear: "will AI drive sustainability forward or hold it back?" asks José Parra Moyano, contributor to Leading the Sustainable Business Transformation: A Playbook from IMD and Professor of Digital Strategy at IMD Business School. "AI has the potential to revolutionize sustainability efforts by automating complex reporting, turning vast datasets into actionable insights, and streamlining compliance." However, he cautioned that innovation comes with challenges. "AI's energy and water demands are surging; Microsoft's 30% emissions increase tied to expanding AI offerings is a wake-up call. Leaders must champion 'green AI' by prioritizing energy-efficient algorithms, renewable-powered infrastructure, and optimization across AI life cycles." Beyond environmental impacts, Parra Moyano also addressed social implications. "AI threatens to displace jobs, particularly in vulnerable sectors. Tech leaders need to lead the charge on reskilling and upskilling initiatives, ensuring no one is left behind as industries transform."

The global world is in the midst of economic uncertainty, shifting workplace dynamics and vast technological change - in no other sector are leaders facing more rapid and substantial challenges than technology. As we look ahead to a new year, recalibrating strategies and setting intentions for success will help tech leaders remain focused, as they set the tone for yet another transformative period. New Year Resolutions for Tech Leaders in 2025 Here are four resolutions that every tech leader should consider this year: Make AI Work For Sustainability AI has huge potential to do good, but when it comes to sustainability, the challenge is clear: "will AI drive sustainability forward or hold it back?" asks José Parra Moyano, contributor to Leading the Sustainable Business Transformation: A Playbook from IMD and Professor of Digital Strategy at IMD Business School. "AI has the potential to revolutionize sustainability efforts by automating complex reporting, turning vast datasets into actionable insights, and streamlining compliance." However, he cautioned that innovation comes with challenges. "AI's energy and water demands are surging; Microsoft's 30% emissions increase tied to expanding AI offerings is a wake-up call. Leaders must champion 'green AI' by prioritizing energy-efficient algorithms, renewable-powered infrastructure, and optimization across AI life cycles." Beyond environmental impacts, Parra Moyano also addressed social implications. "AI threatens to displace jobs, particularly in vulnerable sectors. Tech leaders need to lead the charge on reskilling and upskilling initiatives, ensuring no one is left behind as industries transform." He framed 2025 as a pivotal year: "Tech leaders must commit to a bold resolution: ensuring AI accelerates sustainability rather than undermines it. By embedding responsibility into innovation, tech leaders have the power to ensure AI becomes a transformative force for good - delivering scalable, measurable impact while building a more inclusive and sustainable future."

Become a podcast subscriber to get notified every time there's a new episode!   During this holiday season, it seemed like the perfect time to bring you the story of Connecticut's biggest toymaker!    Of all the toys that are enshrined in the National Toy of Fame, two stand out as having solid Connecticut connections, the Cabbage Patch doll and the Erector Set. In this episode, we're going to find out how A.C. Gilbert, a Yale educated doctor, became a millionaire with an idea he got while riding the Metro North train from New Haven to New York City. His construction toy, the Erector Set, sold in the millions and helped to educate generations of scientists and engineers. He came up with dozens of best-selling toys that were all manufactured at his factory in New Haven, Connecticut. We'll also interview Walter Zawalich, Gilbert Trains Curator, at the Eli Whitney Museum about their holiday Gilbert train show. Co-host Patrick O'Sullivan will share his information on 1965's James Bond slot car toy that helped to push the company into closing.   Much of today's information comes from the book The Man Who Changed How Boys and Toys Were Made, The Life and Times of A.C. Gilbert, the Man Who Saved Christmas by Bruce Watson and the website of the Eli Whitney Museum in Hamden, Connecticut. The Whitney Museum collects and studies the products and legacy of A.C.

Although he wasn't born there, his family has roots in the state that go back to the turn of the 20th century. Garrett & Andy discuss the reputation of Connecticut, its role in the colonial period and the founding of the United States, and the importance of learning about your home state's history. They also joke about the difficulty of pinning down a defining stereotype for people from Connecticut.

  We all know a little about New England and Connecticut's  European maritime history. Dutch traders came to North America to trade for beaver pelts and English colonists came to start new communities such as Hartford. But a new exhibition at the Mystic Seaport Museum doesn't rehash this history - it looks to reveal African and Indigenous perspectives on water and the sea.    Entwined: Freedom, Sovereignty, and the Sea is an exhibition that surveys the interplay of maritime histories through Indigenous, African, and African American worldviews. On view until Spring 2026, the exhibition examines  twelve millennia of Black and Indigenous history through objects and loaned belongings from Indigenous and African communities dating back 2,500 years, coalescing in a selection of 22 contemporary artworks.   For more on the exhibition, go here: https://mysticseaport.org/press-release/a-new-major-exhibition-at-mystic-seaport-museum-entwined-freedom-sovereignty-and-the-sea/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAlsy5BhDeARIsABRc6ZsdXrwnuOdXNuyzChssJb7G7QDvtp-1ou95r4jkzwwmo2qLD7Q_1P4aAi39EALw_wcB   Entwined is the first exhibition by my guest Dr. Akeia de Barros Gomes, Senior Curator of Social Histories at Mystic Seaport Museum. She earned her PhD  in Anthropology with a focus in Archeology at the University of Connecticut.   Our second guest is Dr. Kathy Hermes, publisher of Connecticut Explored magazine and Project Historian of the award-winning project Uncovering Their History: African, African American and Native American Burials in Hartford's Ancient Burying Ground.   This is the third and final episode in our 2024 series on Connecticut's maritime history.

"Nutmeg, the seed of the tree, was the most coveted luxury in seventeenth-century Europe, a spice held to have such powerful medicinal properties that men would risk their lives to acquire it." - Giles Milton, Nathaniel's NutmegIn the seventeenth century, a fierce rivalry emerged between the British and the Dutch in the East Indies over the lucrative spice trade. Nutmeg, a rare and highly prized spice native to the Banda Islands, fueled the establishment and rapid expansion of both the British and Dutch East India Companies, each determined to control the trade.Reaching these distant islands was perilous, with expeditions facing violent storms, outbreaks of disease, unfamiliar cultures, and the constant threat of piracy. Despite these challenges, both powers were relentless in their pursuit of nutmeg.With the Dutch securing an early foothold in the region and equipped with a more formidable fleet, they were intent on eliminating British influence to establish a global monopoly on nutmeg. But could they achieve their goal? Or would the British hold on against the odds—and at what cost?Join John and special guest Giles Milton in the first episode of our two-part series on the spice trade wars as they delve into how a single spice from a group of remote Pacific islands would shape the course of world history.Order the special 25th anniversary copy of Nathaniel's Nutmeg by Giles Milton here.In Sponsorship with Cornell University: Dyson Cornell SC Johnson College of BusinessJoin the History of Fresh Produce Club (https://app.theproduceindustrypodcast.com/access/) for ad-free listening, bonus episodes, book discounts and access to an exclusive chatroom community.Instagram, TikTok, Threads:@historyoffreshproduceEmail: historyoffreshproduce@gmail.com

  Early voting has already started in the 2024 presidential election and I just couldn't resist the suggestion by my guests to explore what Samuel Clemens alias Mark Twain, Hartford's greatest Gilded Age humorist, had to say about the United States presidents. Was Twain the John Stewart or John Oliver of his day? Known for his sharp wit and scathing satire, what presidents met with his approval? Corruption, national identity, the power of big business, and America's global role were just as contested then as they are now. His funny, insightful observations about the presidents of his day apply readily to the modern presidency.   Guests on this episode are Twain experts Mallory Howard, Assistant Curator at The Mark Twain House & Museum and Dr. Jason Scappaticci, historian and Associate Dean of Student Affairs at Connecticut State Community College Capital in Hartford.   Looking for a fun and informative event for your library, book club, or historical society?

In his book The Nutmeg's Curse, scholar Amitav Ghosh writes, “the planet will never come alive for you unless your songs and stories give life to all the beings seen and unseen that inhabit a living Earth,”—seeding a shift in consciousness begins with the stories we tell. In this wide-ranging interview from our archives, Amitav explores the themes of his recent work, including the insidious philosophy that the Earth is inert and how this belief paved the way for the implementation of violent projects around the globe, such as the genocide of Indigenous people and the monolith of capitalism. Unpacking the rise and legacy of an ideology of mastery, Amitav asks, if such conquests were made possible by the narrative of an inanimate Earth, what stories can now be imagined to help us recognize the world as sacred and alive?  Read the transcript Photo by Sumit Dayal.
