MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- It's a story that mirrors those of many who came to our area a generation ago. Born in Europe and emigrating to the united states, Nell Weidmann looked for ways to bring her Swiss heritage with her. And over the years, her work has helped to define an experience shared by many in Milwaukee.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Winnie Dortch introduced artist and expert dollmaker Nell Weidmann.
