S4E9. Peder Hansen

From Omaha, Nebraska where he's called home for 20 years, Lem-raised Danish wind turbine engineer PEDER HANSEN reminisces about his family's role as wind turbine pioneers in Denmark, whereby he credits his mother for getting Vestas into the industry in the 1970s, and his father for getting Vestas wind turbines into the US field in the 1980s. Peder talks about climbing up wind turbines, and the strong Danish immigrant and Danish-American community in the Midwest.Peder selects a work by P.S. Krøyer from the SMK collection.https://open.smk.dk/en/artwork/image/KMS3605(Private photograph)----------We invite you to subscribe to Danish Originals for weekly episodes.
