dc.descriptionIn her March 2015 interview with Harv Thompson et al, Leslee Nelson tells the story of how she became interested in art, pursued an education in art, and eventually came to teach at the University of Wisconsin-Extension and in Madison. Nelson reflects on her strong commitment to feminism and activism from a very early age, and a series of 'aha' moments that drew her to art and to education. She reminisces about numerous influences on her work and her teaching, and throughout the interview shared anecdotes about a number of prominent UW-Extension personalities, including Robert Gard, John Steuart Curry, and others. This interview was conducted for inclusion into the UW-Madison Oral History Program and the Gard Foundation's UW-Madison and WI Community Arts History Project.en
