Jessica Kahkoska is a writer and research producer for theater and TV. She earned her BA at Northwestern University and is an adjunct professor at Rutgers University’s Mason Gross School of the Arts. Her plays and musicals have been seen in New York and across the nation, and she has worked as a researcher and associate producer for series and films at CNN, Discovery, Discovery+, the History Channel, the Magnolia Network, and Spotify. Jessica’s research at the Archives will serve to bring the stories of women during the Nuremberg Trials to life, via a historical-drama TV series, The Women of Nuremberg. Featuring an all-female leading cast, the series will delve into the experiences of the women who worked at Nuremberg Trials, and how the events and outcomes change each of their lives. Using Department of State records, the Collection of World War II War Crimes Records, the personal papers of Katherine Fite Lincoln, a female prosecutor at Nuremberg, and more, Jessica will bring the never-told stories of this group of women from the Archives’ holdings to our living room televisions.
