  • Drawing From History with Masters of The Air's Harriet Leitch
    Apr 30 2025

    What's sweeter than two Donuts? Three! Joining us in The Clubmobile this week is Masters of The Air's Harriet Leitch. She gives us a look at the casting process and what it was like bringing Tatty Spaatz to life on the screen. We're also diving into her portrayal of ATA Pilot Ann Douglass and how portraying two real life women from the war impacted her. We had so much fun with this one, and it's safe to say Harriet is a Dollie for life now! Get your coffee and donuts, and get comfortable, this is a fun one!
