Susan Marie Frontczak has given over 800 presentations in her eighteen years as a Living History scholar/presenter, as Marie Curie, Mary Shelley, Irene Castle, Clara Barton, Erma Bombeck, and Eleanor Roosevelt across 42 of the United States and abroad.

Because Mrs. Roosevelt’s life touches on so many issues over such a long span of time, Susan Marie has developed numerous programs to explore different aspects of Roosevelt’s life and times.

​She also works with both adults and youth to develop their own Living History presentations, including authorship of the Young Chautauqua handbook for Colorado Humanities

Franklin D. Roosevelt articulated the "Four Freedoms" that we will be exploring in this year's GameChanger Ideas Festival, but what might the "First Lady of the World" have to say about them? 
Quite a lot actually!
​Eleanor Roosevelt was on the front lines in the fight for human rights. A fierce advocate of the Civil Rights Movement during the 1930s - 40s and, acting as F.D.R's eyes and ears during the Great Depression, Eleanor saw the tragedy, beauty, and triumph of the American people first-hand.
