Chautauqua Presentation: Jessie Benton Frémont | Artown Event
Steve Hale of Comstock Characters has been presenting engaging reenactments of pivotal historical characters to audiences for over two decades in the Lake Tahoe region and West coast. Hale's travels over the years have inspired many opportunities to perform at National Parks including a residency at Yosemite National Park's Valley Theater, State Parks, historical societies, statue dedications, fund raising events, dinner theaters, schools, annual commemorative events, Chautauqua venues, and in repertory with other prominent historical Chautauqua characters.
Steve is a western history buff, NAI Certified Interpretive Guide, and his Chautauqua work sharing history through live performances includes awards for Conservation Educator of the Year, preserving historical legacies through performance, and nationally for Excellence in Interpretation and Conservation. He has also written a book about Stephen Mather first Director of the National Park Service.
