TALK | Storytelling & Myth Making in Presidential Campaigns

About
The frontrunner, the outsider, the self-made man, the anointed heir, the man-of-the-people, the military hero, the dark horse – since Andrew Jackson’s 1824 presidential campaign, popular narratives surrounding the candidates have played a role in our elections. This talk will review some of the most well-known examples, tell some less known stories, and evaluate their success.
Free event. Limited seating. Please reserve your spot in advance: HaysHeighe@harford.edu or (443) 412-2539
