MILWAUKEE (AP) -- A Pulitzer Prize-winning author is helping the Wisconsin Historical Society raise money.

Doris Kearns Goodwin is a presidential historian and author of the bestseller "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln."

She will speak Thursday night in Milwaukee as the Wisconsin Historical Society introduces its first major fundraising campaign, called "Forward!" Baseball commissioner Bud Selig is also expected.

The society plans to use the funds for Wisconsin's historic sites, using new technology to engage audiences and helping protect the organization's collections, among other things.
