Editor’s note: The subjects of our How I Do History interviews often have such interesting lives and careers we can’t fit everything they share with us into the pieces we publish. We save all of it, though, and we’re excited to share this bonus content from our interviews with Nick Hurley, Anny Gaul, and Kate Shuster. You’ll find fuller versions of some of the answers we published in their original interviews as well as never-before published material. Can you guess which of these historians had their light bulb moment watching a Nicolas Cage movie?
