The Queen | 4. Bobbie and Diana Slate Presents: One Year
-
- History
Linda Taylor had a tendency to emerge from out of nowhere, upend everything in her path, then vanish without leaving a forwarding address. The final episode of The Queen focuses on two different stories about the lives Taylor changed. In one case, she helped a vulnerable family escape the degradations of the Jim Crow South. In the other, she kidnapped a child and may have been responsible for her own husband’s death.
This podcast is based on Josh Levin’s book, The Queen: The Forgotten Life Behind an American Myth.
