In honor of the 5 millionth visitor this month, the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum, Dr. Mark DePue, Director of the Presidential Library’s Oral History Program shared the history of creating such an iconic and game-changing museum including stories from the people behind it. “With Bob Rogers and the BRC Imagination Arts team on board, the Historic Preservation Agency’s leadership had found the right team who could breathe life into Lincoln’s amazing story.”

“Cellini illustrated the creative process which began with meetings that included BRC and IHPA staff members together with historians from across the country. The team was determined to find the best way to portray key elements of Lincoln’s story.”
