Marie's Story Recounts Meeting Eleanor Roosevelt

Congratulations also goes out to Marie Caso who just won two awards from the Alliance for Community Media's Hometown Video Festival. If you can believe it, she's already making another video. This one is about meeting Eleanor Roosevelt. Many years ago when Marie was working as a typist in Greenich Village, a woman in black boots would come out of the board meetings about the WPA movement. The woman in black boots would ask Marie to join her in the ladies room to dictate letters. .As it turned out, the woman was Eleanor Roosevelt who was getting work done in the ladies room so she wouldn't be interrupted by the men in the boardroom. We interviewed Marie about her lattest story that she's working on at CCTV.
