Heritage Stories: Visionaries & Experimenters

Heritage Stories is an exciting multi-year project of the Freedom’s Way Heritage National Heritage Area that uses state-of-the-art media to share the stories of the visionaries and experimenters that lived within its boundaries with the widest possible audience.

Each story provides insight into the lives of individuals who were born or lived within the Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area and were shaped, in some way or another, by their time here. These are individuals who have made a difference and been at the forefront of social, intellectual and cultural innovations that relate to new things or ideas that the world, or at least Americans, had never seen before, proving enormously influential on American culture making Freedom’s Way “A Region of ‘Firsts’ in American Invention, Thought, and Design.”
