Autorenporträt
Reginald "Dutch" Thompson has worked in theatre, television and radio but his true love is collecting stories from the bygone days. He's recorded 900 hours of memories & stories from Maritimers born between 1894 & 1925, including stories about: midwives and blacksmiths; favourite horses; one-roomed schools; rum-running; everything from homemade soap to homemade moonshine. This interest in oral history and folklore led to a column on CBC radio that's been running 33 years and counting, along with numerous heritage awards. His first book, Bygone Days: Folklore, Traditions and Toenails, won the 2020 City of Charlottetown Heritage Award and he was presented with the 2016 PEI Heritage Award of Honour for lifetime achievement. He lives in a 170 year old house in Bunbury, Prince Edward Island with his wife Jill.
