LAL Live Part 2: Kathy Maher + The Barnum Museum (NPS May 24)

Norm opens the second hour reading an excerpt devoted to the life of P.T. Barnum from Robert Wilson's, "Barnum in American Life."  Norm is joined in the second hour by Kathy Maher, the Executive Director of The Barnum Museum in Bridgeport, Connecticut.  Who is P.T. Barnum? Norm and Kathy talk about Kathy's path into her position with The Barnum Museum, her initial hestitation, and how she became overwhelmed with Barnum's influence.  They then transition to a long form discussion of P.T. Barnum's life and legacy, and how his purchase of the American Museum changed the landscape of American history and culture.  Like, share, and subscribe!
