Casey Castro-Bracho
A staff member since 2017, Casey processes, catalogs, and manages the archival collections at KHS and provides administrative support for the Archival and Oral History collections. Casey’s love for history and research began at an early age researching deeds and wills with her family in Kentucky courthouse archives. Her passion for the records of the past has not diminished with her work at the Kentucky Historical Society. Casey never gets tired of the wonder and excitement of pulling records from archival storage. The ability to share these documents and their significance with others, as well as the opportunity to think creatively about how to solve research problems and mysteries, are very rewarding aspects of her job. Casey holds a bachelor’s degree in history and American studies from Lindsey Wilson College and a master’s degree in American history from Western Kentucky University.
