Peggielene Bartels - a podcast by Enoch Pratt Free Library / Maryland State Library Resource Center

In 2008 Peggielene Bartels received a call from a cousin in Ghana: her uncle had died, and Peggielene was now the King of Otuam, a fishing village with 7,000 residents. King Peggy chronicles the astonishing journey of a middle-aged secretary in Washington, DC, struggling to make ends meet, who suddenly finds herself responsible for the future of a town half-a-world away.
