Victor Ashe Reminisces About His Mother



Former Knoxville Mayor Victor Ashe, also former U.S. ambassador to Poland and former state senator, has an op-ed piece in today's News Sentinel that tells the story of his mother, Martha Ashe, and how she became the first Republican woman to serve in the state Senate. A recommended read for Tennessee history buffs and/or those interested in women in politics.
