SUMMARY:Durango’s Own Olga Little -- History Live Durango
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Andrew Gulliford\n\nIt wasn’t only men who won the West! Across Colorado and perhaps the entire Rocky Mountains\, there was only one female jackpacker who ran a string of burros carrying food\, supplies\, and dynamite into remote high altitude mines. On her return trips she carried heavy sacks of gold and silver ore and at least once she packed out a deceased miner. Olga Little\, only 5’ 4” and a 138 lbs. earned a solid reputation as a packer in the La Plata Mountains. This is the story of her 40+ year career told from the people who knew her and from magazine and newspaper accounts. What did Olga Little do to become famous? She was a muscular\, resourceful woman who excelled in a man’s vocation.\n\nPresented by Andrew Gulliford\, professor of history and Environmental Studies at Fort Lewis College.\n\n\n\nSW Colorado History Month\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Meet Inventor Nikola TeslaHistory Live Durango
DESCRIPTION:Serbian-American engineer/inventor Nikola Tesla is best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system.  He became a naturalized American citizen after immigrating in 1884\, and worked for a short time at the Edison Works in New York before striking out on his own. Tesla patented and popularized marketable items such as mechanical oscillators/generators\, electrical discharge tubes\, and early X-ray imaging. He pursued ideas for wireless lighting\, and worldwide wireless electric power distribution and was working on a wireless communication device. \n  \nTesla was renowned for much greater showmanship than his consistent critic Thomas Edison\, however alongside his great achievements were copious amounts of humbug. Meet intriguing inventor Nikola Tesla portrayed by Chautauqua scholar Doug Mishler at one of the birthplaces of AC power! \n  \nNationally recognized scholar Doug Mishler has developed Chautauqua presentations for over 24 historical figures\, including Nikita Khrushchev\, Theodore Roosevelt\, P. T. Barnum\, Stonewall Jackson\, Jacques Cousteau and Pablo Picasso.  He is the founder & Managing Artistic Director of Restless Artists’ Theatre\, and teaches history at the University of Nevada.

SUMMARY:Chautauqua: Eleanor RooseveltHistory Live Durango
DESCRIPTION:Susan Marie Frontczak presents a living history portrayal of Eleanor Roosevelt who redefined the role of First Lady\, working tirelessly as an author\, activist and humanitarian. She became a relentless and compassionate voice for the forgotten poor\, underprivileged\, segregated and wounded.  Often working behind the scenes during FDR’s presidency\, she is now widely regarded as the most influential woman of the 20th Century.  As delegate to the United Nations she guided the development of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Behind this public life is the story of a little girl who lost both parents before the age of ten\, a debutante who felt trapped by society’s expectations\, and a young wife who raised five children before emerging into the national and world spotlight. \n  \nFrontczak has given over 800 presentations as Marie Curie\, Mary Shelley\, Irene Castle\, Clara Barton\, Erma Bombeck and Eleanor Roosevelt across 42 of the United States and nine countries abroad.  She works with both students and adults to develop their own Living History presentations and is the author of the Young Chautauqua handbooks for Colorado Humanities. \n  \n\nCo-sponsored by Colorado Humanities\, Fort Lewis College Life Long Learning Program and the Durango Arts Center.\n\nDoors open at 6:30 p.m. Cash bar.\n\nSW Colorado History Month\n\n

SUMMARY:Meet Inventor Nikola TeslaHistory Live Durango
DESCRIPTION:A living history portrayal of Nikola Tesla\, a Serbian-American inventor\, was instrumental in the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system\, which prevailed over Thomas Edison’s favored DC system.  Called the “PT Barnum” of science\, he was a prescient scientist and prolific inventor\, but also a popularizer\, and a remarkably flawed human being. \n  \nNationally recognized scholar Doug Mishler has developed Chautauqua presentations for over 24 historical figures\, including Nikita Khrushchev\, Theodore Roosevelt\, P. T. Barnum\, Stonewall Jackson\, Jacques Cousteau and Pablo Picasso. He is the founder & Managing Artistic Director of Restless Artists’ Theatre\, and teaches history at the University of Nevada. \n  \nCo-sponsored by Colorado Humanities\, Fort Lewis College Life Long Learning Program and the Durango Arts Center.\n\nDoors open at 6:30 p.m. Cash bar.\n\nSW Colorado History Month
