In today's The UncommonWealth, take a musical journey through the career of Mary Higdon Workman, better known as "Sunshine Sue," from the WRVA Old Dominion Barn Dance. Workman, officially designated by Governor Bill Tuck as "Queen of the Hillbillies," is one of the 200 Stories in our current bicentennial exhibition.
