40 Famous Iowans

Over the next few months, we're undertaking a special project in honor of our 40th Anniversary. Interspersed with our regular entries, we'll focus on 40 Famous Iowans. From the "Sacajawea" of the Ioway Tribe to a man who helped found Iowa State University, we will honor the strength and spirit of these Iowans. With their adventures, discoveries, writings, documents, and more, Living History Farms is able to showcase the great history of Iowa.
