Before the "Stay-at-Home" order, Karlee Taylor expected to participate in the installment of a historical marker for Harriette Bailey Conn, who was Indiana's first woman and first African American to be appointed state public defender -- one of many leadership roles she held, including that of state lawmaker.
The marker is an outcome of Taylor's senior thesis at the University of Indianapolis. It was planned to be installed May 1, but that is now postponed. From our Arts and Culture Desk, Jill Ditmire spoke with Taylor by phone about her work to educate people about Bailey Conn.
Taylor will attend graduate school at the University of Georgia this fall, for a doctorate degree in political science.
