What is the aim or goal of your writing: I am deeply interested in American history, which was a key component in my completion of the Ph.D. in political science. Lighthouses, lifesaving and other maritime topics are a central dimension in American history, and I have spent eight years deeply involved in the restoration of Point Betsie Lighthouse near Frankfort. I am currently president of the non-profit Friends Of Point Betsie Lighthouse, Inc.
