The Plot Thickens: The Writers and Raconteurs of Elmwood Cemetery

Their final words, revealed.
Meet the novelists, journalists, broadcasters, and poets of Elmwood Cemetery!
Learn about the judge whose poetry still inspires more than 100 years after his passing, and get to know the educator and historian whose work is integral to understanding Memphis history. Meet the "godmother of Afro-Hispanic literature and culture" and the woman who broadcast a live radio show from a jet fighter. Visit the final resting place of the man who wrote thousands of pages about the Civil War and the reverend who wrote about ghosts.
Join Elmwood volunteer and podcaster Sheena Barnett for this tour of Elmwood Cemetery on Sunday, June 9th at 2 pm. The cost is $20 per person.
