Reading of a short story about a woman on trial for the murder of her husband. Although advertised in the KPFA Folio as "A question of justice," this is actually a short story called "A jury of her peers," written by Susan Glaspell around 1916. This is the twelfth episode of the fourteen-episode series produced and broadcast on KPFA by Virginia Maynard and Charles Levy from 1958 to 1959. The series was written and directed by Virginia Maynard and produced by Maynard and Chuck Levy, narrated by Levy, and engineered by David Talcott. It was funded in part by the Educational Television and Radio Center in Ann Arbor and distributed nationally by the National Association of Educational Broadcasters.
