Returning to Powerhouse for additional episodes-in-progress is A Simple Herstory, a groundbreaking—Webby Award-honored, Anthem Award-winning and Telly Award-winning—multi-platform audio fiction exploration of the 100+ women who have run for President of the United States. Season 2 revolves around the life and times of Margaret Chase Smith who ran for President in 1964 and borrows from 20th century film styles to create a complex portrait of the Senator from Maine, challenging historical narratives, cultural assumptions, and entrenched myths about American politics.
