Our Second Speaker is:
James Nicoloro
Producer/Director
James will be speaking about Albert Bigelow Paine and sharing a sneak preview of his latest documentary:
The Redding Mark Twain- Twains last 22 months of life at his home in Redding, Connecticut
"What little I knew of Mark Twain came from a vague recollection of reading Tom Sawyer and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in high school. To a high school student like myself, the books seemed remote, the dialogue difficult. But no matter, Twain seemed to be part of my dna and there was nothing I could do about it. Who didn't known the name Mark Twain. At the turn into the 20th century he was one of the most famous people in the world. You could not overestimate his popularity. Time magazine recently called him our first super star. Author and critic, William Dean Howells, his literary confidant and friend of 40 years, gave him a more measured appraisal, calling him the Lincoln of our literature."
