Hi Jason. My name is Billy Townsend. I'm writing a book about the Florida writer Marjorie Rawlings and her famous civil trial for invasion of privacy. My great aunt and great grandfather were the plaintiff's lawyers. I think sexuality and what it meant to be a woman the WWII and immediate post WWII era is a massive undercurrent of the case. Your grandmother and her work, through a tiny blurb Marjorie wrote about "Trio" in a letter, has become a big part of the story for me. I found this post with some googling and it is incredibly helpful to me. It answers some questions for me and is just endlessly fascinating. I would love to talk to you about your grandmother and explain her importance to the story I'm telling and get some additional insight from you. I also have a substack. And I wrote a published a little excerpt from book and well as an explainer that you might enjoy reading. https://billytownsend.substack.com/p/a-man-or-a-mother-the-women-and-invasions My email is townsendsubstackpe1@gmail.com -- would love to get a good email from you.
