Linda Przybyszewski

Linda Przybyszewski grew up outside of Chicago, attended Northwestern University, and earned her Ph.D. in U.S. History at Stanford University. She was trained as a legal historian, but she also comes from a long line of sewing women, and these two sets of skills -- research and dressmaking-- come together in her latest book. She may be the only person to have lectured at the U.S. Supreme Court in a suit she made herself. Professor Pski teaches at the University of Notre Dame.
