Actor writer Tom Lynskey will present the history of the SS Atlantic in a Sept. 21 presentation of the Atlantic Highlands Historical Society’s Speaker Series.
The program will be held at the Strauss Mansion Museum on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 7:30. p.m.
Lynskey will speak on the White Star Line ship that met disaster off the coast of Nova Scotia 40 years prior to the Titanic disaster of the same ship line.
An author, actor, archeologist and game producer, Lynskey is currently developing a series of video games focusing on history and vintage eras, most notably a project about the RMS Titanic titled “Titanic: Honor and Glory”.
The historian will bring artifacts from the last voyage of the Atlantic to the Strauss museum for his presentation and discussion of the event and artifacts.
There is no charge for the program, and all are invited to attend.
