Listen "S7 E7 Heather Stemp"
Episode Synopsis
They say you should never meet your heroes because they'll disappoint you (or leave you tongue-tied).
Heather Stemp learned that her Aunt Ginny actually met the world-famous aviator Amelia Earhart when she landed in Harbour Grace, Newfoundland in the 1930s. From that single fact, Heather has created a series of books blending history and fiction. She told Costas Halavrezos about the journey of a girl inspired by meeting her idol to persevere in a world that's hostile to women taking on non-traditional jobs.
