As Theodore Roosevelt, Joe Wiegand brings history to life
for audiences young and old.
Inspired by great Americans, Joe excelled in his studies and in community service. For his leadership and academic achievements, Joe was named a Century III Leader by the National Association of Secondary School Principals. Joe was elected by his peers to be American Legion Boys State Governor and American Legion Boys Nation President. TIME Magazine named Joe one of America's 100 Outstanding College Students and he was awarded a Harry S Truman Scholarship and a Thomas Watson Fellowship. A lifelong student of American history, government and foreign policy, Joe is a political science graduate of The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee, and a former graduate assistant at the Center for Governmental Studies at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Illinois. Following T.R.'s counsel to live a vigorous life and be the man in the arena, Joe has served as an elected county commissioner, a campaign and public policy professional, a board member of various not-for-profits and senior warden at his church. Joe is a Lion, a member of Rotary International and a member of the National Association for Interpretation. Today, Joe travels the country with his wife, Jenny,
his daughter, Samantha, and their golden retriever, Faith.
Their T.R. Tour celebrates Theodore Roosevelt's 150th
birthday and the centennial of his final historic year as "So many of T.R.'s contemporaries testify
to the way he entertained audiences with inspirational and
humorous stories from his youth, his ranching days, Cuba and
the Presidency. I really enjoy sharing T.R.'s funny stories
of life in the White House with six kids and telling
anecdotes from his many adventures, from bear hunts to the
Panama Canal, from Africa to the Amazon. T.R. is so big and
so exciting! Call me today, and we'll perform a great show
for your group."- Joe Wiegand |
