"We were thrilled -- Kate got good feedback from all the different ages of people in our audience. They found Annie's life inspiring -- her strengths, her will in experiences in the Tewksbury Poorhouse. We realized what a resolute, strong character she was and what a fighter she had to be. Kate's subtle, understated performance brought the audience fully into Annie's life." -- Sara C., librarian, Manchester-by-the-Sea-Library, "What a pleasure and surprise to see how much had gone into your character study - you did a splendid job of capturing her personality, style and history. And you did an equally fine job of answering audience questions. A thoroughly enjoyable learning experience for all." -- Paula Ogier, Cambridge Center for Adult Education "We were enthusiastic about this character's life. Students enjoyed how you introduced us to courageous women we'd not heard of before. These are ordinary women they can understand and identify with." -- Joan Godsey, 5th grade teacher, Leverett Elem School
