Lou Hartman interviews the activist who called herself "Peace Pilgrim" (neé Mildred Norman), who has walked 25,000 miles since 1953 in her quest for world peace. Peace Pilgrim talks about her journey, which she's undertaken with no possessions, money or organizational backing, why she's chosen to adopt a pseudonym instead of using her real name, and some of the encounters she's had while on her pilgrimage.
