On the evening of April 14,1865, an entire theater audience was
witness to the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
Tim Good will present a program on the Lincoln assassination based
on his book, We Saw Lincoln Shot: One Hundred Eye Witness Accounts.
From diaries, letters, depositions, affidavits, and periodicals, the
book is a collection of accounts from a variety of theatergoers who,
by chance, saw one of the truly pivotal events in US history. These
accounts provide firsthand details recorded over a span of ninety
years from that night in the Ford’s Theatre.

is currently the superintendent at Lincoln Home National Historic
Site. Good has served at over a dozen assignments including:
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, Ford’s Theatre, the National Mall,
Cuyahoga Valley, Dayton Aviation, Ulysses S. Grant, Agate Fossil
Beds, Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, Pictured Rocks and
Acadia.
Good received a Bachelor of Arts from Valparaiso University, Master
of Arts from the University of Durham, England, and earned a diploma
from the United States Naval War College.
