We obviously have distinctive and separate voices as historians, with our own interests and audiences, but we have also been collaborating closely and productively for more than five years now. In addition to co-written articles, Atlantis magazine, and Janet's assistance on Greg's three most recent manuscripts, both are involved in ongoing help with research and critical reading of Joe Fuhrmann's Rasputin biography.
