The US Treasurer oversees the making of all US currency. When Marion Ohio's own Mary Ellen Withrow became US Treasurer she did not just oversee the making of the money, she changed it.

Join Mary Anne as she sits with Mary Ellen Withrow and discusses her extraordinary career that took Mary Ellen from the local school board, to being a county and state treasurer, and to her work as US Treasurer where she led the redesign of paper currency and the creation of the State Quarter series and the Sacagawea Dollar Coin.
