Executive Director and Chief Historian @Eastland Disaster Historical Society
Arlington Heights, IL, US
At the Eastland Disaster Historical Society we believe that very human life has value, and - when looking through the lens of the Eastland Disaster - we are passionate about preserving and sharing the tens of thousands of life stories of people connected to the tragedy (Chicago\'s greatest). Envisioned the opportunity and market for a historical society based on the Eastland Disaster (Chicago’s greatest tragedy yet also the most obscure part of the City’s history). Performed all start-up functions necessary to spawn the Society (EDHS). Led EDHS to become “the most qualified authority on all historical aspects of the Eastland Disaster” while maintaining full-time employment status in the for-profit sector.
