Making Great Lakes History Come Alive!
Today’s events are the history of tomorrow, yet our everyday LIVES SEEM TO LACK WORTH AND IMPORTANCE as we move DETACHED through the minutes and hours of the day. remember, all WE DO, SAY, and feel matters to the future.
We are tomorrow's history today.

Janie Lynn Panagopoulos, Great Lakes author and historian, has worked in historical research, interpretation, and writing for over 45 years. Her love of writing started when her third-grade teacher, Miss Richardson, at Washington Elementary School, Owosso, Michigan, suggested she talked too much and assigned her a chair in the classroom corner facing the wall. Midway through the school year, her wise teacher gave Janie a notebook and pencil and advised her to learn how to express herself without disrupting the class by writing; this was when it all began.
