Digging Dirt at Green-Wood with Historian Ben Feldman
This Saturday, January 14 at 1pm, the Green-Wood Historic Fund will host an afternoon with author and historian Ben Feldman at Green-Wood Cemetery for a talk and question-and-answer session, where participants will join Feldman in uncovering the long-lost stories of Green-Wood’s permanent residents.
Feldman will discuss the forgotten characters in his two books, Butchery on Bond Street and Call Me Daddy, in addition to his current research. Following the talk and Q&A session, he will lead a trolley tour to the graves of the subjects of his research.
The talk is free. Tickets for the trolley tour are $15 for Green-Wood Historic Fund members and $20 for non-members. Reservations for the trolley tour are strongly recommended and seating is limited. If the tour is not sold out in advance, walk-ups will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis.
