Welcome to my website! The APUSH Framework divides American history into 9 time periods. I have lived through almost all of Period 8 (1945 – 1980) and all of Period 9 (1980 – Present). That means I’ve experienced and observed a lot of American history!
I grew up in a small town in western North Carolina. I worked for Senator McCarthy’s presidential campaign and attended the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago. I knew a number of hippies but I didn’t attend the Woodstock rock festival. Contrary to what many of my students think, I didn’t know Theodore Roosevelt, live through the Great Depression or fight in World War II. However, my father was a bomber pilot who fought in the historic American victory in the Battle of Midway. (Of course, I believed he single handedly won the war).

I have done more than experience American history; I have also taught the subject for many years. I have taught in urban, rural, and suburban public schools. During my career I taught the sons and daughters of farmers, factory workers, prominent politicians, and Nobel Prize winners. I always strove to create informative and engaging lessons with a touch of humor. I am very proud of my students, many of whom have achieved great success in life.
I earned my B.A. and M.A.T. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and my M.A. from Wake Forest. I taught a variety of AP subjects including U.S. History, Art History, European History, and American Government. I have published popular books in all these subjects as well as SAT preparation. These books have enabled students across the country to be confident in their abilities when facing high-stakes exams.

What People are Saying
This book is an invaluable resource to students. This book exceeds its competitors in every way.
Every passage is so beautifully written that a student does not feel as if she is studying, but rather as if she is reading for herself, for pure knowledge.
The information is concise and provides what you must know… I felt very confident in this book and my preparation.
