The Hidden History of Memphis by Wayne Dowdy

No other city, save the urban giants of New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, has contributed more to the development of our nation than the City of Memphis. Home to an unconventional creative class, Memphis revolutionized our world by altering the daily rhythm of American life in several extraordinary ways. Join author G. Wayne Dowdy as he explores the hidden history of Memphis.

G. Wayne Dowdy is the senior manager of the Memphis Public Libraries history department. He holds a Master’s Degree in history, is a contributing writer for the Best Times magazine. He is the author of eight books including Hidden History of Memphis, a Brief History of Memphis, and On This Day in Memphis History, which was awarded a Certificate of Merit by the Tennessee historical Commission.

Access will be through GoToWebinar.  Instructions and Connectivity Link will be forwarded via email to all registrants upon registration, six days prior and again 1 hour prior to the event.  Making the connection is quick and easy only requiring a computer and Internet connectivity from wherever you chose to watch the event. Your questions help drive the meetings, and we will be there to help each other.
