Lost Cleveland
Rediscover the Cleveland that once was with author and historian Laura DeMarco. Through rare photos and fascinating stories, she explores the city’s rise, fall, and reinvention – from vanished landmarks to iconic neighborhoods. It’s a nostalgic and eye-opening journey through the places that built our collective memory.
Laura DeMarco Bio
Laura DeMarco is the author of the books Lost Cleveland, Cleveland Then and Now, Mark Twain’s America Then and Now and Lost Civil War. She is an arts and culture writer in Cleveland, Ohio. Laura specializes in history and lost landmarks. She also writes about historical preservation, architecture, art, film and travel. She lectures at museums, schools, colleges and historical societies on these topics and more.
The goal of the Cleveland Stories Dinner Party is to bring to life some of the fun, interesting stories about Cleveland’s past – from sports, to rock ‘n roll, to Millionaire’s Row, — the series will focus on tidbits from Cleveland’s past that will really thrill the audience. The Music Box is presenting this series in partnership with the Western Reserve Historical Society’s new Cleveland History Center. We think the Cleveland History Center is one of the most important museums in Cleveland. An unknown gem that Clevelanders should know more about, and support. It is the only museum in Cleveland dedicated to preserving and documenting the history of Cleveland. The Cleveland History Center includes two mansions, the Crawford Auto Aviation Museum, Chisholm Halle Costume Wing, Research Library, Kidzibits Hands-On Gallery, rotating exhibitions, and the Euclid Beach Park Grand Carousel.
