Housewife from Hell
by Linda C. Reynolds, '93

 

Patty Wallace, ’52, has spent over 20 years fighting for her mountains. She’s fought corporations, state and local govern-ments, and even her husband, who works in construction and mining. She has opposed landfills, hazardous waste inciner-ators, mountaintop removal mining, and helped abolish the broad form deed.
