THE WARDEN Maria van Nispen

What'sHerName - A podcast by Dr. Katie Nelson and Olivia Meikle

We often hear about history’s various Golden Ages, but what about when good times were over? Maria van Nispen, a bricklayer’s daughter, came of age during the Dutch “Disaster Year,” 1672.

Music featured in this episode includes Jimena Contreras, Doug Maxwell, Sir Cubworth, Emmit Fenn, Wahneta Meixsell and Hanu Dixit. Want to help us “make history”? Become a Patron or Donate here!
