The Four Who Flew: The Kalishek Siblings, Pioneers in Early Aviation

The Four Who Flew: The Kalishek Siblings, Pioneers in Early Aviation

The Escanaba Public Library is hosting local historian and author Kylie Kalishek on Thursday, March 26 at 5:30 p.m. for "The Four Who Flew: The Kalishek Siblings, Pioneers in Early Aviation."

During an era when flying was dangerous and dominated by men, the women in this remarkable family stepped onto the wings of biplanes and into aviation history. In recognition of Women’s History Month, this program highlights their courage, resilience, and often-overlooked contributions to early flight. Through rare photos, newspaper clippings, and family archives, Kylie brings this forgotten chapter of Michigan aviation to life.

This free event is sponsored by the Friends of the Escanaba Public Library and is open to all ages.
