Sue Hagedorn arrived on Block Island for the first time on a boat named, “Tor” (“Rot” spelled backwards). Sue and her family would cruise around Long Island Sound, land on Block Island and simply hang out. A self-proclaimed hippie, Sue definitely stuck out like a sore thumb amongst her family’s well-healed Yacht club friends. But that never bothered Sue much.
Sue graduated college in 1967 as the summer of love kicked into full swing and took a job at Harvard. It was there she became a member of the radical activist group The Weathermen and took part in certain activities which landed her in the clink. Her stories from this period are beyond epic.
With her “Wild Years” mostly behind her Sue has since lived a few different lives. From nurse to documentary film maker her path has been anything but straight and narrow. Smash the “Play” button to hear the rest.
