A letter of introduction...

Who am i?

My name is Brian Allison, and I do history…

Over the past two decades I have worked in the field of public history. During that time I have acquired a great deal of experience, working in collections, interpretation, research, retail, marketing, education, and public programming for several museums.

My work in those areas also led me to study in-depth many historical skills and trades, most notably historical handwriting and tailoring, along with some other associated skills. These skills, I find, continue to be of immense help in understanding the past and bringing it to life.

I’m a published author, with two books currently in print (more on the way), several articles, and one documentary to my credit. I have also worked on several television series and historical documentaries, both in front of and behind the camera. I currently live in Nashville, Tennessee.

If you have any questions about anything above,  if you want to see about hiring me, or have questions or comments about anything else for that matter, I’d be happy to talk to you. Just contact me using the form on my homepage. I hope to hear from you soon.
