Roland Hui is an art historian, and the author of a new book, The Turbulent Crown on the Tudor queens.
What a joy it was to speak with Roland Hui, who has made an interesting discovery of a new portrait of Anne Boleyn, and also has a new book out on the Queens of England. One note: In the podcast we spoke about Levina Teerlinc. She was not a member of Anne of Cleves’ household – she got mixed up with Susanna Horenbout. I’m trying to make the edit in the podcast itself, but until then I wanted to specify that Levina Teerlinc was not in Anne of Cleves’ household. Thanks so much, Roland. I loved speaking with you!

Heather Teysko is the creator, writer, and producer of The Renaissance English History Podcast, the original Tudor history podcast, started in 2009. She's been writing about history online for over 25 years, since her first site on Colonial American history became number one in history on Yahoo in 1998. In 2019 she created Tudorcon, which is now a yearly event, in addition to writing books, and running TudorFair.com - a whimsical Tudor Merch shop.
She has been passionate about Tudor England since she first read Alison Weir's The Six Wives of Henry VIII 30 years ago, and subsequently moved to London after college to spend her time immersed in Tudor history (how exciting when she got to interview Alison for the first time!). In addition to history, she is passionate about travel, and has lived in 3 countries and 4 states (not counting her perpetual state of confusion), and her family (who help her host her YouTube channel occasionally).
