Hear a complete interview with Frances Flanigan, formerly the executive director of the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay. The interview is part of an unfolding collection of stories from prominent environmentalists in the state of Maryland, recorded in 2019, and supported by the Town Creek Foundation.
In this conversation, conducted by Genevieve de Mahy in collaboration with the Peale Center for Baltimore History and Architecture, Frances talks about the origins of the environmental movement, reaching out to farmers and finding common ground with business and industry. She also muses on what individuals can do to make a difference with the environment. "A lot of what remains to be done requires people to make really fundamental changes to how they live."
