JGSGW VP of Programs\, Mary-Jane Roth\, will interview Linda about her diligent research to uncover her Jewish ancestry. Light refreshments will be served.

A graduate of Swarthmore College with a BA in psychology\, Broenniman went onto get an MBA from Carnie Mellon. Several years after graduation\, she left mainstream corporate America to follow her path as an entrepreneur and let her passion for uncovering hidden potential in unexpected places guide her to uncover her family’s secret past.
