Bringing History to Life with Jessica Michna: Portraying Mother Mary Ann Bickerdyke
Step into history with award-winning historian and actor Jessica Michna as she brings to life the inspiring story of Mary Ann Bickerdyke, a heroic Civil War nurse beloved by soldiers and known as “Mother Bickerdyke.”
During the Civil War, more soldiers perished from disease than battle wounds, and the care they received was often woefully inadequate. Mary Ann Bickerdyke rose above these challenges, distinguishing herself with her tireless dedication and compassion. Join us for a theatrical performance recounting her incredible journey and legacy.
