    Doing Local History in Indiana A Conversation with Linda Lou Rippy, Charlotte Sellers, and Joseph L. Skvarenina n 2003, when the Indiana Magazine of History surveyed its over 8,000 Isubscribers about their historical interests and reading habits, three out of every four respondents expressed a desire to know more about local history activities around the state. The following year we published David Vanderstel’s interview with Sal Cilella and Reid Williamson about the activities of the Indiana Historical Society (IHS) and Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana. In a letter to the editor published shortly thereafter, IUPUI history professor Robert Barrows pointed out that since Cilella (now chief operating officer of the Atlanta Historical Society) and Williamson (now retired) directed “the two largest and best-endowed historical organizations in Indiana, they are automatically unrepresentative of the state’s public history community writ large.”1 __________________________ Linda Lou Rippy directs the Marshall County Historical Society.
