   Bonus Content: The Herstory of a Button

   On May 14, 1875, a twelve-year-old Elizabeth Robins submitted a story to her teacher at Putnam Female Seminary in Zanesville, Ohio. Elizabeth's brilliance is on clear display. Scholars, including her biographer, Joanne Gates, believe this is the first use of the word "herstory" (you can hear us discuss this in Season 1, Episode 1). Since the story includes George Washington it seemed right to include in our America250 bonus content. Want more?

   Evelyn Nesbit in My Little Sister

   Elizabeth’s novel, My Little Sister, was made into a silent film in 1919. The lead actress was Evelyn Nesbit, the most famous face of her generation.

   Fielder Harris: The Making of Elizabeth

   Elizabeth got a close look at race relations in the early twentieth century through her friendship with Fielder Harris. As a formerly enslaved man making his way in Florida, Fielder worked at Chinsegut and mentored Elizabeth and her brother Raymond as they built their property into a modern farm. Fielder helped form Elizabeth's perception of what it meant to be human and influenced how she would pursue justice in her generation.

    The Snows of Snow Hill

    Before the Robins christened their property Chinsegut, the Snow family had dubbed it Snow Hill. Charlotte Ederington Snow, the oldest child of the Ederington family who had first built the manor house, grew up there and then raised her seven children on the Hill. Even once the Snows sold the manor and bulk of the property to Elizabeth, they continued to own property right next to it and were pivotal in the Robins' renovation and restoration efforts. This double-length episode features two of Charlotte's descendants who provide insight into the still influential Snow family. The cover image was taken by Elizabeth in 1906 and features Ernest Snow on the left and his brother Mallory in the middle.

    "Home Sweet Home" Music

    Music played an integral role at Chinsegut, from casual sing-a-longs around the piano, to the annual community sunrise Easter service, to concerts on the porch.

    Rest Cures

    The Rest Cure was a medical treatment combining various physical and mental treatments as well as a surprising diet. When Elizabeth continued to suffer side effects from a bout with typhoid, she underwent a couple rest cures. Out of those experiences came a novel, A Dark Lantern: A Story with a Prologue, that would be made into a film in 1920 starring Alice Brady and James Crane.

    Home of the Tangerine

    For much of the twentieth century, Brooksville, Florida identified itself as "Home of the Tangerine" and incorporated the fruit into their city stationery, police badges, and high school class rings. But why was the tangerine so embedded into the community identity and how did it impact Brooksville's development? Our special guest this episode is fifth generation Brooksvillian Jim Kimbrough. He is a descendent of Francis Ederington, who built the Chinsegut Manor House. His family and descendants would live on the property from 1851 until Elizabeth Robins purchased it in 1905.

    Chinsegut Civilian Conservation Corps

    FDR quickly implemented the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as part of his New Deal program and Chinsegut became a CCC Camp in 1937. While employing a couple hundred young men on the property in way millions of others would work on other CCC camps across the country, the CCC camp at Chinsegut also had some singular qualities.

    Raymond. Always Raymond.

    Elizabeth was the oldest of seven siblings and Raymond was the youngest. Elizabeth remained his primary confidante throughout his life and because they were rarely together, much of their conversation was by letter and we are able to share in their confidences. While Elizabeth was living an artist’s life, Raymond was immersed in Progressive Era politics. You may not know his name, but his fingerprints are all over modern American government.  Today’s guest, Dr. James Clark, first discovered Raymond while researching Claude Pepper. That’s the launching point that takes this podcast through many famous figures and events. Want more from the clever Dr. Clark? Check out his books (https://www.drjimclark.com/) Intrigued by Raymond?

    When Literature Became a Weapon

    In the battle for women’s suffrage, Elizabeth and some friends formed the Women Writers Suffrage League.  Their weapon? The pen.  Over the next decade the group would flood the market with suffrage literature of all types such as plays, novels, editorials, and poetry. How did they come up with this strategy? And more importantly, did it work? Elizabeth’s play Votes for Women! (https://www.amazon.com/Votes-Women-Play-Three-Acts/dp/1077058721/ref=sr_1_3?crid=166BBFI5OO22E&keywords=Votes+for+Women%21+robins&qid=1679424853&sprefix=votes+for+women+robin%2Caps%2C136&sr=8-3) Elizabeth’s novel The Convert (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2570177-the-convert?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=BQ5IZukCxi&rank=1) Elizabeth’s essays Way Stations (https://www.jsu.edu/robinsweb/waysta/index.html) Suffrage Collection Treacherous Texts (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11337811-treacherous-texts?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=z0tPdfgK2Y&rank=1) Virginia Woolf’s Night and Day (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/116056.Night_and_Day?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_13) Want more?
