Autorenporträt
Peggi Medeiros is a historian specializing in New Bedford history. Her first book, New Bedford Mansions: Historic Tales of County Street, focused on what the money raised from whaling created in the city--grand mansions and public buildings, as well as nurtured artists like Albert Bierstadt and John James Audubon. She likes to joke that it is possible to connect anything to New Bedford. Her one failure was Alexander Hamilton; however, church bells were rung when he died. She lectured frequently on New Bedford history and is the secretary of the Dartmouth Heritage Preservation Trust. The trust oversees the 1762 Akin House in Dartmouth.
