I spoke in many states about Wings of Opportunity and am available to speak about A Rare Titanic Family as well. I truly love telling history -- the truth makes a most fascinating story indeed. I would love to tell the Titanic story (or the Wright Brothers story) to your group. I have fully developed, optional PowerPoint presentation that can be tailored to run between 30 minutes to 45 minutes, depending on your needs. I also have a 55-minute one-woman show, where I "become" Sylvia Caldwell and tell the story as though it's still 1912. All shows are entertaining. I've had a BLAST developing the performance!
My Three Not-So-Ordinary Joes show is great fun involving audience taking parts in simple skits. It takes about 50 minutes.
I also speak in Carrie Ingalls' Little Newspapers on the Prairie. This show was developed during the pandemic, so I can easily do it on line in about 30 minutes. I can also speak about Carrie in person!
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
I'm Julie Hedgepeth Williams. Albert Caldwell married my great-aunt Jennie in 1936, and I heard his Titanic story often -- he loved to talk about it. I was so captivated by his story that I majored in History and English at Principia College. After working as a journalist in Clinton, NC, I got a Master's and PhD, both focusing on Media History, from University of Alabama. I am past president of the American Journalism Historians Association. I teach journalism at Samford University and have also taught journalism at University of Alabama.
I also wrote The Significance of the Printed Word in Early America: Colonists' Thoughts on the Role of the Press. The Significance of the Printed Word was published by Greenwood Press.
