Karen Louvar works at Stratford Hall, but she is a proud native of Huntington, West Virginia, who came to the Northern Neck via Kentucky and Arkansas. Although Karen never worked in a coal mine or played in a bluegrass band, she and Colin talk about her southern upbringing, why she became interested in history, and their shared memories of Little Rock.
