….Samuel G. Freedman, who will be in Madison Tuesday, speaking at the Memorial Union at 7 p.m., does not exactly tell his own story in his new book, “Who She Was.” It is rather a search for his mother, dead from cancer in 1974 at only 50, when the son was in college at UW-Madison, writing for the Daily Cardinal and pretending not to know his mother (in front of classmates) when she visited him on campus.
