0 Comments

 
The following information was provided to NFLS by Kevin Wood aka “Mr. Lincoln”:
"I am “Mr. Lincoln”, a professional first-person historical presenter of our nation’s 16th President based in the Chicago area, with a very strong resemblance to Mr. Lincoln and a very extensive knowledge of his life and times. 
​

This is to let you know that I now offer programs via various forms of virtual programming (in addition to old-fashioned in-person programming!):

  •  video conferencing via Zoom;
  • live-streaming via Facebook Live or YouTube Live; and
  • pre-recorded videos available online via YouTube.

Note that when I do a “live” virtual program, I also authorize the recording of it so that it can be made available online for a period of one week; pre-recorded videos likewise may be made available for one week.
