The West Virginia & Regional History Center Awards Research Grant to Soojin Chung
Soojin Chung was awarded a Research Grant to do further work on Pearl Sydenstriker Buck, a famous author from West Virginia. It is part of a larger project in which Chung is uncovering primary sources by female missionaries who worked during the post war period. She is particularly interested in how Pearl Buck and others served as missionaries and humanitarians who pioneered the transnational adoption movement.
