The Dolls Pod celebrates the story of a survivor, author, activist, and singer Marsha Hunt.

This week’s Doll is a whole lot more than a name squished into a clickbait slop article. She met Mick Jagger several years into her own storied career; which brought her from the UC Berkeley campus to playing Dionne in the West End production of Hair, then gracing the pages of fashion magazines and performing at Isle of Wight. She’s a novelist and memoirist, activist, actress in TV and film, and a stage three cancer survivor. What can’t Marsha Hunt do?

I picked up a first press of her album, Woman Child, just the other day. She does a great version of Tim Rose's Long Black Veil.
