MYSTERIES AT THE MUSEUM

I appeared as a subject matter expert on a dozen episodes of the Travel Channel’s long running show Mysteries at the Museum. I was given a story brief and list of anticipated questions several days before each shoot. It was my job to get quickly up to speed on topics as diverse as the importance of duct tape on the moon and how Eisenhower fits with the grand tradition of the epic US road trip.
