Lucas Gillespie

Lucas is a Maryland native who grew up in Silver Spring and Bethesda. He graduated with a BA in History from Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, New York, and is looking to pursue an MA in Public History and Museum Studies. Lucas' love for narrative storytelling is always growing, and he is always looking to add to his knowledge of little-known local histories. His research interests include historic architecture, American decorative arts, and regional New England history. When he is not writing and researching, you can probably find Lucas going antiques shopping, visiting history museums, or working with the collections committee for The Rufus Porter Museum in Bridgton, Maine.
