ABOUT ME

Public history is my passion.
During my twenty years in the field, I've had the chance to see how historical scholarship--creatively and engagingly shared with the public--can make an impact.
I've advised:
-
Start-ups;
-
Television executives;
-
Museums;
-
Policymakers;
-
Journalists;
-
Universities;
-
Non-profits;
-
Scholars
On how to communicate history content for public audiences.
As a manager, leader, fundraiser, curator, archivist, oral historian, researcher, lecturer, registrar, film director and Board member, I've devoted my career to sharing history with the world and advocating for a more intelligent and informed citizenry based on knowledge of our past.
I love to think, write, and communicate about the future of public history in America, and I work every day to make a better, more inspired, and more educated world. I earned my B.A. in American Studies from The George Washington University and my M.A. in History and Archival Management from New York University. I'm originally from White Plains, New York.
