For the past three years Ms. Bly has been seen on Boston's Freedom Trail portraying her own ancestor as "Mary Polly Perry the Singing Milliner", leading 1st person interpretive guided tours of the historic sites of boston with "The Histrionic Academy". In this role she also lectures on 18th century American and English Folksong, and, much like her character has taken up the business of sewing and millinery! She is a self- taught seamstress, and costumer and has been costuming and assistant costuming for the past 15 years for high school, college and personal use and (of course) specializes in 18th century fashion.
