The Room: The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies

 Oh hi, Derry!

Liz and Ellie will discuss the biggest cult hit of the new millennium and the Citizen Kane of bad movies, Tommy Wiseau's The Room. We'll talk about the making of the film, how it became a cult classic, the big tell-all book (The Disaster Artist), and of course- the weird and mysterious director, Tommy Wiseau (No, we still don't know where he's from or how he made that money)

This program will be presented via Zoom.

This program will be presented via Zoom.

Genealogy Series: Look At This Life - How Thinking Like a Biographer Can Make You A Better Genealogist

Genealogy can often feel like a race to prove relationships and build pedigree charts, but what happens when we stop, slow down, and explore just one person’s life from start to finish? In this class, we’ll think more like a biographer than a genealogist as we create research plans, dig for context and unearth the life story of a single individual.
