Dolley Madison started life in Virginia as a Payne - no pun intended.Then her Quaker family moved to Philadelphia, where she married lawyer John Todd, and had two children.Then, after the death of Todd and one of their children, Dolley faced financial hardship and was forced to sell bread on the streets of Philadelphia.And all of this before she married James Madison - and you'll never believe who introduced them, and who served as James's wingman during the courtship.We talk to Lynn Uzell, Scholar-in-Residence at Montpelier, who not only studies Dolley, but portrays her. We also take a tour of Todd House with Karie Diethorn, a historian with the National Park Service.Join us!
