Read quote

Kinsey was never a lawyer. She's strictly blue collar.
Read quote
I attended the University of Louisville my freshman year, transferred to what was then Western Kentucky State Teachers College for my sophomore and junior years, and then graduated from the University of Louisville in the summer of 1961.
