This spring and summer I got lucky enough to be a WAMS Ambassador for the Women and the American Story program at the New-York Historical Society.  I can't emphasize enough how wonderful this resource is, and in this episode, I tell you a bit about WAMS, but also highlight three women that struck me as incredibly interesting:  Weetamoo, a sachem in the Wampanoag confederacy, Sarah Roelfs Kierstede van Borsum, a Dutch woman who served as  Lenni Lenape interpreter, and Sybilla Masters, the first person to have a patent in the English colonies.
