Latest / Her Half of History

Captain Carolyn Kurtz (by Shipwrecks and Sea Dogs)

Today I have an episode by fellow Into History podcaster Rich Napolitano, of the Shipwrecks and Seadogs podcast. He looks at maritime history across the world and across the ages. Historically speaking, ships were often named as women, but they didn’t have a whole lot of women working on them. With some exceptions. There are a handful of known women mariners in history, and that is a potential future series topic for me. In this episode Rich interviews a woman who is currently working in the field, Captain Carolyn Kurtz, a maritime pilot in Florida.
