Author - Heritage Interpreter - Consultant - Guide

Hi, I'm Eric Washington,

I'm a freelance writer, tour guide and photographer based in New York City. My particular experience in synthesizing local history through heritage interpretation includes articles, public signage, exhibits and walking tours. I'm always interested in projects that stimulate an appreciation for exploring windows on the past as a means for approaching the future.

- Do you need a unique local history angle to enhance your business establishment's decor or image?

- Does your literary or film project need factual "hooks" on which to hang your ambient historical theme?

- Do you require a promotional brochure for a community event that highlights lesser known themes from your neighborhood's history?

- Does your organization need an interpretive walking tour to better acquaint members or visitors to your community's significant historic sites?

If your area's singular "local color" has vanished under the broadstroke of recorded history, let me help you retrieve it.

Let me locate some of the cultural backstory behind your neighborhood's streetscape that can help you achieve the tone you want for your project.

I am a history book author in the Arcadia Images of America series and have written for many national and local publications. I have researched, reported and consulted for various community organizations and municipal agencies. My public presentations have included exhibition script writing, slide lectures, urban history walking tours and exhibit curating.
