In this Legacy Interview, South Dakota Hall of Fame CEO Greta Chapman sits down with Bill and Peter Duhamel, sons of 2019 Helen Duhamel.
Bill and Peter discuss the impact their mother made in South Dakota, all during a time where it was hard for women to get jobs, let alone develop whole industries the way Helen did.
Helen created positive change from her very beginnings in business; pulling the family business out of bankruptcy during the Great Depression, to single-handedly creating KOTA-TV, the first television station in western South Dakota, second in the whole state.
In 1961 Helen was elected president of the South Dakota Broadcasters Association, the first woman to run any state broadcasting organization in the United States.
