Ten years ago today, a treaty written up in Dayton, Ohio was finalized, putting an end to bloodshed in the former Yugoslavia and a three-year war which displaced thousands to the United States. We’ll sit down with a roundtable of Bosnians and Croats now living in New Hampshire and talk about life at war, peace in Dayton and the work that still needs to be done. Laura's guests are Nermina Zildjo, Former Curator for the National Gallery in Sarajevo. She came to New Hampshire in 1995 and currently works as a Patron Record Specialist at the Dartmouth College's Library.
