About Lindsey Maymon :

Lindsey is a professional time traveler. She is a historical actor, playwright, public historian, experimental archaeologist, storyteller, and keen historical costumer. She has spent the past ten years discovering how to dress like a Viking, walk like a Tudor, and dance like a Georgian; she has learned how to sing old folk music, how to avoid getting dysentery, and how to tell a good ghost story.

The past is far more wonderful, more awful, more hilarious, more heartbreaking, and more human than we realize. When we uncover the heartbeat of the historical past, we have a chance to better understand ourselves and our moment, and can hope to make better choices than those who have come before.
