Todd spoke on culture, everyday life, positions in society, the roles of men and women, tools, weapons, and clothing. On display were many of his own cultural and historical items.
A question and discussion period followed.
Todd has been a consultant for Meadowcroft Rock Shelter, Fort Necessity Battlefield, the DCNR, and Friendship Hill. He has done many workshops with children and adults in schools and at community programs and festivals.
He has also been awarded letters of recognition by Congress for his historical portrayals of the Huron heritage. To learn more about the Huron heritage and to contact Todd, he can be reached via his website, www.ghostinthehead.com.
The afternoon ended with refreshments provided by the Whitehall Library. It was an enjoyable and educational afternoon for all in attendance.
