Historian Dan Ruminski On Millionaire's Mile: The Great Estates Of Wickliffe

Dan Ruminski tells a great story. The celebrated local historian will be delighting us once again with Millionaire’s Mile: The Great Estates of Wickliffe, a new true tale full of drama and fascinating facts at a special Sunday With The Friends event on January 22 at 2 p.m. in the First Floor Multipurpose Room at the Main Branch of Lakewood Public Library.

What happened in Wickliffe a hundred years ago involving the well-known and well-to-do Rockefeller, Corrigan, McKinney and Coulby families “is the best and most exciting story I have done so far,” according to Ruminski. And surprisingly, the story is even tied into the Oscar-nominated movie The King's Speech.

Ruminsky is a lifelong resident of the Cleveland area and a successful businessman. His study of Cleveland history became a passion and in 2008 he began speaking locally to sold-out crowds hungry for hometown history.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear an exciting recount of Cleveland’s glorious past on Sunday, January 22 by a beloved storyteller. This program is brought to us by the Friends of Lakewood Library and Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. And as always, this event is free and open to the public!
