Elizabeth Stack Reprised

In this episode of the Irish Stew Podcast, host Martin Nutty discusses his experience celebrating St. Patrick"s Day at the American Irish Historical Society, meeting its executive director, Dr. Elizabeth Stack. Despite her success in revitalizing the society, news of her removal for cost-saving measures casts a shadow on its future.  The episode reissues a conversation from July 2024, when cohosts John Lee and Martin Nutty met Dr. Stack at AIHS to discuss her background, her efforts in promoting Irish American history, and the Society"s then-state. The conversation also explores the importance of storytelling, historical preservation, and community involvement in sustaining cultural institutions.
