Want more of a Historic Experience?
Yeah. We can do that.
You see the benefits of having a historic keynote.
The power of the past inspiring the past to create a better future. It's all there.
And if one icon could make such an impression, imagine what two could do. Or even more.
John Adams debating with fellow founders on the debate to create this country.
Theodore Roosevelt stepping into the arena with those he inspired--and those he angered.
Historic Debates and Discussions. Your next experience.
A difference of Opinion
Adams and Roosevelt are people of strong opinions. But theirs is not the only opinion. Both sides challenge the other to defend their position--and offer alternate viewpoints. And sometimes, they gain even more from the people they don't agree with.
From Both Sides Now
Experience the well-known stories from multiple angles - gain new insight when our speakers get additional insight that broadens your understanding. Or makes you ask more questions about what you thought you knew.
The More The Merrier
Take your event up a notch and multiply your audience engagement. Take your pick of personae to speak with, speak with them all - or watch them talk, laugh, or argue with each other. (Probably all of the above.)
Your Debate and Discussion Partners
John Adams:
John Adams, the stubborn founder, has plenty of opinions and relishes a good debate. Adams takes on discourse, disagreement and hearty debate with many well-knowns from his day.
Theodore Roosevelt:
This "bull moose" of a man fought hard for what he believed was right--making him lifelong friends and terse enemies. This student of history has plenty to say to people before and during his lifetime.
- George Washington - TR estimated Washington as one of the best Presidents and strove to labor like him, however impossible
- Thomas Jefferson - apart from the Declaration of Independence, TR did not hold a lot of respect for this founder
- Abraham Lincoln- TR's role model and north star for his own Presidential administration
- Woodrow Wilson- the President that frustrated TR the most in his lifetime, whom he called a Byzantine Logothete (you can ask him about that!)
- Franklin D. Roosevelt- TR's cousin and unexpected protégé who followed his footsteps years later
- "Mount Rushmore - a monumental gathering of four unforgettable Presidents (Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and TR)

Thank you so much for last night. You really were amazing as President Theodore Roosevelt and I think our volunteers and members really enjoyed having you at the event.

So many people told us last night how much they enjoyed your presentation. We all feel as though we know Mr. Adams in a much more personal way after listening to "him" speak...you gave information about Adams' background and youth that none of us was aware of. It made him live!

The program was unlike any other I have attended or sponsored. As high as my expectations were, you surpassed them!

However you think of me—as an interpreter, impersonator, actor, re-enactor, motivational or guest speaker, or even look-alike, I bring the insight, wisdom, experience and advice of these Presidents for all who will ask and/or listen. In full presentations, meet-and-greets or Q&A’s, my goal is to engage and hopefully enlighten. You get more than "a guy in a suit," more than a walking encyclopedia article. Whether you wish to interact, or simply listen, what I ultimately do is bring a living, breathing, thinking interpretation of John Adams and Theodore Roosevelt to you. Discover the heroes of humanity - and the humanity of our heroes.
