Eleanor Roosevelt. Her politics was a bit too Liberal for me, but she had a great interest in people----and, she made herself do alot of things that she feared she could NOT, and I find her, fascinating.

"You must do what you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt

Others, that interest me, are: Mae West and Annie Oakley. Each of these women created their public personas, and IMO, were very wise in the crafting of their careers, and were, overall, very smart.

"A dame that knows the ropes isn't likely to get tied up." - Mae West

"For me, sitting still is harder than any kind of work." - Annie Oakley

i do not know. i can not speak the languages of past centuries.

what could i say to julius caesar or alexander the great?
nothing.

when we die, we all "speak" the same language anyway (i believe), so i will wait until then.

if i just am nothing forever after i die, then it will have done me no lasting good to have met a famous person in history.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
One of my heroes, and he changed the face of our country to respect people, no matter what their skin color is.

As a historian, there are many historical figures I would like to meet
some of these include
Jonathan Allen
Joel Wakeman
Richard Weaver
W.G. Calderwood
John Russell and James Black
The Grimke Sisters

Frederick the Great of Prussia.

I would like to meet a Neanderthal man who experienced how a Homo sapiens woman feels.
