Katherine Goddard Revolutionary Printer and Patriot

Mary Katherine Goddard defied critics in 1777 by refusing to reveal the author of a Maryland Journal article. She ran the Baltimore printing shop during the Revolution, maintaining the paper through shortages, debts, and war, with brother William often absent. Born in Connecticut, she learned the trade, led the Maryland Journal, and upheld press liberty across several colonies.
