Susan Ronald answered Goodreads's question: What are you currently working on? I've written two fiction manuscripts and am starting my third. Why fiction?

Quotes by Susan Ronald (?)

“The link between foreign-exchange transactions, art, and armaments hadn’t gone unnoticed by Hoover.”

“History matters. Facts matter. But above all else, context matters. Changing history and facts—canceling them as if they did not exist or changing them to suit some twenty-first-century weaponized truism is another form of propaganda and lie.”
