Appearances: Talks and Performances

LITERARY LECTURES AND LIVING HISTORY

I have lectured on various topics related to 19th-century American literature on topics like Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Margaret Fuller, Fanny Fern, the growth of the publishing industry and its technology throughout the century, and the impact the Civil War made on American writing. 

I formerly portrayed Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne in first-person programs beginning 2009. I retired from these performances in 2021.
