Abraham Lincoln
at the Library
Join Abraham Lincoln on Thursday February 16th at the Greenville Public
Library! He will speak at two separate events and you are invited
to attend one or both. Each event is ticketed so please pick up
your free admission tickets at the Reference Desk. All ages are
welcome!
President Lincoln will present “A Biography of Lincoln’s Life” at 4:00
p.m. and “Lincoln, Ohio, and the Civil War” at 6:00 p.m. Each
talk will last 45 minutes with 15 minutes for Q&A. President
Lincoln asks that you come prepared with questions! This is an
opportunity to get behind the scenes during this fascinating time in
history.
Lincoln impersonator John Cooper is a self-avowed history nut and
considers Lincoln his favorite and our greatest President. He has
portrayed President Lincoln for more than 25 years with the aid of his
tall stature, Lincoln-styled beard and coat, and stovepipe hat. John
has appeared all over the US and locally at the Darke County Fair and
Trinity Wesleyan Church.
He says the hardest part of portraying Lincoln is not being able to
speak about his assassination and what happened after his death. For
more info please see his website
www.fourscore7yearsago.com/lincoln.html. Refreshments will be
served.
