Season 2 FINALE: Quarter Clip Show

<p>This week on Lady History: It's the Season 2 Season Finale! This year the US Mint started a program to honor women with quarters with five new designs based on women from American history. Four of 2022's five honorees* have been covered by us on the show, so to celebrate the end of 2022 and the end of Season 2, we are taking a look back at&nbsp;outstanding orator Maya Angelou (S1 EP 12 "The Lady History Library"), famous first-flyer Dr. Sally Ride (S1 EP 23 "Space Oddities"), compassionate Chief Wilma Mankiller (S1 EP 11 "[Insert political joke here]"), and&nbsp;praiseworthy performer Anna May Wong (S1 EP 37 "Lights, Camera, Action").</p> <p>Read more:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.usmint.gov/learn/coin-and-medal-programs/american-women-quarters" target="_blank">https://www.usmint.gov/learn/coin-and-medal-programs/american-women-quarters</a></p> <p>Logo by: Alexia Ibarra<br> Editing by: Alana Stolnitz<br> Music by: Alana Stolnitz<br> Archival audio in this episode is from Anna May Wong's performance in "Lady from Chungking," NASA's recording of Sally Ride's flight, radio Interview with the Director of "Mankiller".
