Episode 27: Milwaukee Talkie - Margaret Henningsen


Listen Later

A conversational, full-length interview with longtime Milwaukee change-maker Margaret Henningsen. We talk with Margaret about her life in Milwaukee, from starting UWM’s Black Student Union, getting her own FBI file while in college, marching for fair housing in 1967-8, founding Wisconsin’s first woman-owned community bank, and serving as executive director of the Women’s Fund of Greater Milwaukee from 2011-2016. Listen along as we learn from one of Milwaukee’s most influential residents about what she has learned from over 50 years of making Milwaukee what it is today.
