What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked? What temperature is it outside? When the person you could have been meets the person you are becoming, is it going to be a cause for celebration or heartbreak? What are the questions we're going to ask each other? What was life like at the dinner table when you were growing up? What are we really trying to accomplish? How do you have this cogent two sentence explanation of what you do? How many clicks can we get per visit? What would happen if there was a webpage that was designed to get you to leave? What were the questions that were being asked by people in authority at Yahoo in 1999? How did the stock do today? Is anything broken? What can you do today that will make the stock go up tomorrow? What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

Send us a text I am excited to share with you, that there is currently a stunning art exhibition – featuring the works of Maxfield Parrish, at the Flagler Museum in Palm Beach, Florida. To celebrate this exhibition of Parrish’s work – you are now listening to a re-release of the interview with Judy Goffman Cutler and her fascinating insights on Maxfield Parrish. The exhibition is from the American Imagist collection at the National Museum of American Illustration in Newport, RI where Ms. Goffman Cutler is the founder and executive director. The museum art works are housed in Vernon Court, a stunning, Gilded Age mansion on Bellevue Avenue. At the Flagler museum – you will see 80 works by Parrish - 20 original artworks and 60 vintage prints, photographs, letters and related ephemera items. You will hear in this interview details of Parrish’s career and techniques and gain an appreciation for both his artistic and impressive commercial success. I hope that listening to this entertaining interview will encourage you to see this amazing exhibit – where his works evoke a fantastical sense of beauty. This show – called The Ethereal Worlds of Maxfield Parrish , will be at the Flagler museum – and due to popular demand, is now extended through May 25th. Link to the Flagler Museum Parrish exhibit is here . Please follow me on social media: Instagram and Threads: @phihpod My website is: www.kathleenlangone.com , which also has details of my upcoming Gilded Age biogrpahy, "The Miniature Painter Revealed: Amalia Kussner's Gilded Age Pursuit of Fame and Fortune".…
Send us a text Otto Antoine, who was discussed in the September 2022 episode, has gotten much attention recently through a September 2024 article in the online magazine Art News ( link here ). The article also helped promote efforts to get the collection of his works, owned by Todd Barrowcliff, hopefully into a museum or academic institution. Not only was Todd interviewed but also Dr. Jacquelyn McDonald, (University of Texas, Dallas), who has an expertise in early 20th century German art. The news of this article also prompted a presentation hosted by the Fritz Ascher Society , who's mission it is to present history on artists persecuted by the Nazis. Both Dr. McDonald and myself were interviewed ( link to this at YouTube ). Having this artist get national and potentially international attention again is a delight for me - since it highlights that this podcast series does profile poeple that have some importance historically.

Send us a text You will hear a detailed discussion on how with time the hysteria of the Salem Witch trails ended. Various factors, such as the changing local political climate and the rules around convictions changed - but not overnight. Also provided will be an explanation of the archaic court system used then in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, that in some ways hastened both convictions and hangings. And provided will be a better understanding of those who were still in jail as of 1693 and their eventual fate. The events between 1692 through to 1711 will be covered, through interviews with Josh Hutchinson and Sarah Jack, both descendants of those tried and convicted at the time. This is the third podcast on this topic of New England Witch Trials and links to the other two are below. Note that the earlier podcasts primarily discussed the Connecticut Witch trials also, which pre-dated the Salem trials. (can also be found on Spotify and Apple ).

Send us a text In this episode you’ll hear a fascinating but largely unknown story from the Civil War about slaves who actually were enlisted to become spies for the Union side. You’ll learn about this in an interview with author Robert Hilliard , who published an intensively researched book last year - titled - In Freedom’s Shadow . Robert’s book - has had the distinction of TWO book awards : The Firebird Book Award for African American Fiction and the PenCraft 2024 Spring Best Book Award for Historical Fiction. Note that this episode, recorded last December, was delayed since I was working on my book which will be out next Spring, details to be found below. Robert Hilliard has written on sports, history, and the outdoors. He started his professional career as a marine biologist - in fact, his first paid publication was in Florida Oceanographic Magazine. After moving back home to western Pennsylvania, Rob worked as a reporter for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and wrote for other outlets such as Upland Almanac , Pennsylvania Wildlife , and Pittsburgh History Magazine . His first book, A Season on the Allegheny , was published in 2012, and went to the “Top 10” in two Amazon categories. His historical espionage thriller: In Freedom's Shadow , is based on the true story of slave John Scobell, who escaped to the North during the Civil War, only to return to the Confederacy as a clandestine Union spy. In Freedom's Shadow was published in November 2023 and became a #1 Bestseller in multiple Amazon categories in its first week of publication.

You will hear of the enduring relationship between two men - who were very different characters in history, but in actuality had many things in common. Here is a great review of "The Rough Rider and the Professor: Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Cabot Lodge, and the Friendship that Change American History" from Publishers Weekly: "This fascinating study reveals a new perspective on both Roosevelt and Lodge, and the impact of friendships on the course of events. Jurdem ably navigates the huge cache of letters exchagned between the two --- some 2,500 in all --- to tell a story rich with personal detail." The book can be purchased through Amazon at this link .

Again - I am fortunate to interview Mark Ludwig (Director of the Terezin Music Foundation) and learn about the women at Terezin and their role in the music and the arts at this concentration camp. Though Terezín’s male composers — Gideon Klein, Viktor Ullmann, Hans Krása and others — are well known, many outstandingly talented women were at the epicenter of the camp’s cultural community as well. In this episdoe we will learn about the life and artistry of poet and composer Ilse Weber and about how she and women like Regina Jonas, who was the first ordained woman rabbi, and Bauhaus artist Friedl Dicker-Brandeis helped their fellow prisoners transcend the horrors of Terezín. There were also the singers, pianists, and educators who comforted and enriched life within the walls of this concentration camp. Two images of the artwork from the children in Terezin will be posted at the podcast website, in the Viktor Ullman page ( link ).

Send us a text This episode will present a very complete view of Hutchinson, from her early adoption of certain religious beliefs to her clash with Gov. Winthrop. Dr. Hermes will provide not only the story of her life but the religious and social background of the Massachusetts Bay Colony of the 1630's. Though the early years of the Bay Colony are often depicted as a haven for religious freedom, you will learn of philosophical divides and the involvement of the political leaders. And how these deep disagreements, as part of the Antinomian* Controversy, lead to the outright banishments of some of the early inhabitants. Hutchinson's unwavering alignment with controversial beliefs and misogyny, in part, contributed to her family's tragic fate. Provided at the end of the episode, will be excerpts from the trial exchanges with Hutchinson and Winthrop (at 44min, 12sec). *(from Greek, loosely translated to "Against the Law") Link to trial transcript Dr. Katherine A. Hermes is the publisher of Connecticut Explored (magazine of Connecticut History). Her impressive academic career includes: (A.B. History, cum laude, Univ. of CA- Irvine, M.A. & M.Phil History, Yale Univ., J.D. from Duke Univ. School of Law, Ph.D. in Colonial American History, Yale Univ.). Her dissertation, "Religion and Law in Colonial New England, 1620-1730", covered the Antinomian Controversy and Anne Hutchinson. She has had numerous publications, the most recent co-authored with Beth Caruso, "Between God and Satan: Thomas Thornton, Witch-Hunting, and Religious Mission in the English Atlantic World, 1647-1693," Connecticut History Review (Fall 2022).

Send us a text Welcome to the People Hidden in History Podcast series, You will hear a brief preview of an upcoming podcast episode – to be recorded and released later this fall. This is to be a follow-up episode from August 2022, which was an interview with Mark Ludwig, Director of the Terezin Music Foundation. The episode focused on Viktor Ullman, a composer and music critic, who was a prisoner at the Terezin concentration camp. However, this upcoming episode will focus on the many talented women at Terezin (pianists, composers, educators). These women comforted and enriched the life within the walls of this concentration camp. The Robert Schumann piano piece you hear at the beginning and end, was known to have been played by women pianists at Terezin. To highlight these women, the Terezin Music Foundation – is excited to give them their due on the great stage of Symphony Hall in Boston at their next Gala Event on November 19th ( details here ). Do listen to the first podcast ( link here ), that will give a better understanding of life at Terezin, and how those living there were under constant threat of deportation to Auschwitz but also how music still could enrich their spirits.…

It tells the story of how the U.S. Navy was unprepared to enact its island-hopping strategy to reach Japan when World War II began and how oceanographers came to the rescue. Our efforts were severely hindered in that there was inadequate data on tides, planning for coral reefs, etc. - to enact effective amphibious landing.

His commercial art – primarily in magazines, became an iconic art style from the 1900's through the 1930’s. Leyendecker was also a major influence for Norman Rockwell, one of America’s most beloved 20th century artists. You will learn of the evolution of Leyendecker's style – from the Paris art scene of the 1900’s to then reflecting the elegant lifestyle of the 1920’s that men and women strived for. But, in clever and subtle ways – his art also reflected his hidden lifestyle. Episode markers (in mins:secs) Background – J. C.

Send us a text Maxfield Parrish is one of the most iconic artist of the Golden Age of Illustration. He was most well known for his calendar covers in the 1920's and 1930's. These would been seen across America's homes at the time, and often the calendar artwork would be saved and framed, after that year had passed. He was also commissioned for many magazine covers, book illustrations and commercial artwork (such as for Jello). But Parrish, like many other Golden Age Illustrators (such as JC Leyendecker and Howard Pyle), did not get the notoriety and name recognition they deserved. Aside from Parrish being probably my favorite artist, he was also a good person to profile as being hidden in history. Guest speaker : Judy Goffman Cutler, Founder and Director of the National Museum of American Illustration in Newport, Rhode Island, and the American Illustrators Gallery in New York City. For Judy's full biography, please refer to the People Hidden in History website ( link here ). Judy will review key aspects of Parrish's professional life (spanning 70 years) and the 3 distinct artistic style periods. And you'll learn about the history of the National Museum of American Illustration, which houses the largest collection of Parrish's world-wide. And finally, you will learn about his very distinctive style, which can be fantastical, or photo-realistic landscape paintings.
