iBAM-Irish Books Arts Music weekend at the Irish American Heritage Center in Chicago draws all that its title suggests!  Lucky for me, a few people had a some time for a chat.  This episode features actor/writer/spoken word performer Josephine Craven chatting about her main project- Lady Jane Wilde(mother of Oscar Wilde) aka "Speranza",  the toast of Society in her lifetime. Josephine created a one woman show all about this woman.   Fascinating.
