Pamela Howard, Historic Albany Foundation Executive Director

Pamela Howard serves as the Executive Director for the Historic Albany Foundation, an organization focused on salvaging and promoting the City of Albany's long and proud history as the longest continuously chartered city in the United States. Founded in 1614 as Fort Nassau by Dutch traders and settlers, then named Fort Orange, Albany is one of the United States' first settlements and played a key role in both the French and Indian Wars, as well as the American Revolution. Pam Howard herself has overcome tremendous obstacles and grief in her personal life, going so far as to write a book about her experiences entitled 'Out of the Blue', which she hopes will help others cope and heal from what has been a tough year full of loss -- but also hope, as Pam exemplifies and discusses in this episode.
