On this episode of Our American Stories, she started selling moonshine at 17, and spent the rest of her very long life (she lived to 101) perfecting her business model and putting several local kids through college. She was so popular local juries wouldn't convict her! J.D. Phillips, the Appalachian Storyteller, tells the story of Maggie Bailey.
