TAH Project Directors Meeting - NYC
Once again, Ale Stein and his staff at the US Department of Education put together an engaging meeting for project directors and other staff, including historians, of Teaching American History grants. Historians such as Darlene Clark Hine, Edward O'Donnell, and James McPherson discussed timely topics. Breakout sessions featured a wide range of sessions focusing on grant implementation and evaluation.
Elise and Rich were both able to join us and, once again, David Gerwin was busy running all over the conference. Sam Morgan of the Gilder Lehrman Institute put together a session featuring Carol Berkin and former teacher of the year Rosanne Lichatin. I concluded the session with a brief overview of how TAH partnerships with GLI work.
That evening, GLI held a reception and presentation at the Union League Club. As always, a classy get together focusing on teachers and historians and all others interested in history.
