One of the teachers who brought her class to see me at James Madison’s Montpelier for Constitution Day ’09 sent me this snapshot! I am on the porch of Madison’s beautiful home after speaking to the kids and the gathered public — I lov…ed being between the Constitution and President Madison himself (played so well by John Douglas Hall). I’m such a history geek – this really was one of the most thrilling things I’ve done in my work to bring powdered wig history alive for today’s students! I MEAN IT!!!!
