America 250 Event: George & Martha Washington - A Love Story

Featuring Curt Radabaugh as General Washington and Alisa Dupuy as Lady Washington. Today, we often see America’s first “First Couple” as very old people, in stodgy portraits. However, at the start of the American Revolution, they were in their 40s, a vibrant couple in middle age. They lived and loved and had their joys as well as their trials. Learn about this important couple as well as the people who surrounded them and helped them achieve all that they did. Hear from them about how they met, about their marriage, their families, their responsibilities and, of course, about their love. It is educational, emotional and romantic.

Presenter: Alisa Dupuy (Martha Washington) began her business "Ladies of History" in 2006. Alisa is a retired French teacher from Princeton Public Schools and Lafayette College. She has had a life-long interest in history and turned that interest into a business portraying famous women in history, Martha Washington being the first. Alisa's goal is to bring this devoted Patriot to life for a new generation and to remind us of women's contributions to the American cause. Curt Radabaugh (George Washington) has had a life-long fascination with George Washington and he has achieved his goal of portraying this great man. A veteran and retired law enforcement officer, Curt seeks to continue his life of service by helping to preserve America's past for a new generation.
