As taught in most schools, history is a drag.
However, once we've memorized dates and battles of the Civil War it is fascinating to read letters between soldiers on the battlefield and their families at homes, north or south. The joy of delving into history is discovering the stories that personalize the men and women who lived past times and were party to remarkable events. This is why so many are compelled by the stories of passengers on The Titanic than the accounts of the company that commissioned the ship.
Annette Daniels-Taylor understands this. As a playwright she engaged Buffalo audiences with her 2009 Artie Award winning play, A Little Bit Of Paradise. Using Buffalo history as a springboard, the story depicted political, racial and personal struggles during the administration of its then mayor, Francis X. Schwab, a racial reformer and anti-prohibitionist.
