Dr Heidi Strobel is my guest in episode 56 about Mary Linwood. Heidi joined me from The University of North Texas, USA where she is is Professor of Art History. She is also the author of Mary Linwood: Embroidery, Installation, and Entrepreneurship in Britain 1787-1845 which has been invaluable for my exhibition research.

Heidi and I have been in touch throughout this project and she’s been an amazing support in the development of the exhibition and in the general excitement I feel about being able to share Linwood’s work. This is a fantastic conversation in lots of depth about Mary Linwood’s life and work. If you need to start with an introduction to Mary Linwood, there are several previous episodes including a short intro in episode 45, as well as conversations with historians in episodes 49 and 55.
