History often forgets the women who risked everything in World War II. Journalist Michelle Young makes sure that doesn’t happen with her powerful book, The Art Spy: The Extraordinary Untold Tale of WWII Resistance Hero Rose Valland. Rose was a quiet Paris museum curator who secretly spied on the Nazis as they looted thousands of masterpieces for Hitler’s super-museum. With courage, cunning, and relentless determination, she curated the stolen art and passed intelligence to the Resistance. She safeguarded Europe’s treasures and stood her ground during the liberation of Paris. Her work is still being used today to recover Europe’s stolen art. Join Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro for this riveting conversation on Women Road Warriors as they talk to Michelle and delve into Rose’s bravery, the fight to protect culture, and why Rose Valland’s story matters now more than ever.
