I decided to really dig in and give you as much as I could, without going down a rabbit hole. So, unlike the other artists on this podcast, I’ve broken Robert S. Duncanson’s story into three parts. In this one, of course, I'll cover his earliest years – Please note, though, that I won’t go too early because there’s not a lot of information on his childhood.
