"PaigeBooth" in the News - Dave Taylor - 05-19-2015 12:20 PM
This article is almost a week old, but I thought it would be nice to highlight one of our forum members, PaigeBooth, who had an article written about her giving a speech outside of Ford's Theatre to a group taking the John Wilkes Booth Escape Route bus Tour. Paige did a great job and kudos on the article!

That is wonderful, Paige!
Other members should know that Paige was recently asking for suggestions of audiences that she could talk to on the assassination in order to fulfill requirements for early-graduation from high school. Paige is home schooled.
I was suggesting classrooms and libraries, but she was adamant that she wanted to talk to historians. Since Dave was the narrator for this particular escape route tour, I suspect he had a hand in getting her this terrific assignment.
CWRTs can be tough audiences, and this particular one has as one of its leaders the President of the College of Southern Maryland, Dr. Bradley Gottlieb, who is also a Civil War scholar and author. What a great opportunity.

Kudos, Paige! Very well done indeed -- you are off to a great start!
It's great to see the NEXT generation of Boothies "taking the reins" as it were....
