"A good, scientific investigation has to have
a specific question and direction -- since the results may be unexpected."
Gwen is one of the best thinkers in her field. When the history detectives
started working together, the team quickly learned to rely on Gwen because
she always had something important to add to solving the mystery.
When the search for evidence hits a roadblock (and every investigation
eventually does) the team relies on Gwen to come up with suggestions
and new leads to solving the mystery.
The detective most likely to think outside the box, Gwen is particularly
good at organizing clues and figuring out what evidence says.
Even when there's a break in the investigative action, her brain will
still be sifting the puzzle pieces in search of solutions.
Case in Point
When Gwen talks about History Detectives, she speaks in terms of connections:
links to history, the way the team works together and her role in tying
it all together for viewers.
"My understanding of the historian's role has always been that
of a history detective -- someone who thinks about different approaches
to a question or problem.
"An investigator must have curiosity, determination,
and an interest in the past, not just the things that are
easy to see."
