Susan Caolo

THE VETERAN STORY is a collection of  personally engaging experiences and compelling conversations with people around the world and right here at home. I am an applied anthropologist and ethnographer who has lived and conducted original research in the Netherlands, Peru, and the United States. A 2017 project, collecting and recording life histories of US veterans from WWII to present for the National Park Service’s Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park, led to a passionate on-going commitment to interview veterans for the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. 
My academic training: MA in Anthropology from Georgia State University, MA in Spanish from University of Tennessee, MBA from Thunderbird School of Global Management and guest scholar at Amsterdam School of Social Science Research. Personal background: My father proudly served in WWII and continued to serve 30 years in the USNAVY with my mother and five children!
