I'm so excited to meet two of my favorites when I moderate the Local History panel for the Greater Pittsburgh Festival of Books featuring authors Zachary Brodt and Ed Simon on May 11. Join us for free! (Not an ad. I am donating my time.) events.humanitix.com/local-history?…
Took a much-needed trip to the desert to recharge after an intense three months of work and school. Hope I missed all the rain and flooding and general weather mayhem in Pittsburgh??
Me remembering that time someone tried to trademark our area code
REMINDER 👇
🧵 1/2 Did you know the cause of the Fern Hollow Bridge collapse was attributed to the erosion of support beams by near constant water runoff? This runoff was due to an abundance of CLOGGED STORMWATER GRATES that are normally supposed to divert rainwater to the rivers.
Pittsburgh, if you’re bothered by the litter problem this is where to put your time and donations. This is the group actually cleaning up the mess. Please help us by pitching in a few bucks this Earth Month! (I serve on their board’s development committee)

Honored to hear that my recurring history column, “Dahn Memory Lane,” at Pittsburgh Magazine has been nominated for a Golden Quill Award! My next piece will appear in the June issue and I love the topic so much. 🖤💛
That’s a wrap on teaching Pittsburgh History to WWII for Pitt-Osher. Had a blast teaching 45+ awesome students all about the forces and people that shaped our city. Now my focus returns to grad school and writing, including the return of my newsletter soon! Onward!
I just watched the tiny moon beat the giant sun. Set lofty goals; anything is possible.
What a fantastic book club visit this was today! My 20th! Jamaica, Mexico and Palestine represented among these Pittsburgh women. ❤️💛🖤
Pirates. Penguins. Pittsburgh. A good day for those who love them all. 🖤💛
Fyre Festival but make it yinzer

Also @PGHDistrict8 - I need donations of new, unused or very gently worn baby clothes 0-12 months, breastfeeding supplies, new bottles and pacifiers, baby bedding, towels and burp cloths. Please spread the word to other moms and parents who may want to clear out their closets.
It only took a handful of you less than 8 hours to meet my goal for the entire month. Pittsburgh generosity in action. You can still toss a few dollars in! 🖤💛

Pittsburgh, please help! In honor of Earth Month and my role on their development committee, I'm raising $500 for Allegheny Cleanways b/c they're the ones cleaning up the litter here. I'm not above staring intensely at you until we're both uncomfortable. flipcause.com/secure/fundrai…
I don't read reviews of my book because ... have you met me? But here's a review of my book. I have no idea if it's a good review or a bad review. Enjoy! Or ... throw trash on this person's lawn! Whichever is applicable.
