In a 2013 interview with NPR, Hutchison explored the challenges of obtaining the perspectives and opinions of many of the women who helped pioneer history, given that interviews or newspaper stories with these women were non existent, and how conversations amongst women helped preserve the evidence of their struggles:
"It's diaries and letters, that's all you had. They didn't have newspapers, you had to get it from letters. And the letters where honest. They talked about the troubles that they were having."
