My living history programs of Frederick Law Olmsted, Augustin Fresnel, Philip Freneau, and Young Abe Lincoln are available to museums, historical societies, lighthouses, schools and public gardens. Do you have someone from history with a compelling story that you would like to see performed for your audience & organization? Let's see what's possible!
I look forward to hearing from you.

Performances are customized for projects designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, which means I add and incorporate the highlights of Olmsted's experience with the specific project.
Projects designed by his nephew/stepson John Charles Olmsted and Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. are presented with the original performance.
