Pittsburgh's First Museum and An Infamous Street Preacher

The Pittsburgh Oddcast

Jul 11 2019 • 38 mins

We are all familiar with the great museums around Pittsburgh, but did it all begin with the Carnegie?  In this episode of the #PittsburghOddcast, we visited Richard Pell, the founder of the world-famous Center for Post-Natural History to talk about what it is like to own a museum of your own and the history of Pittsburgh's very first museum - James Reid Lambdin’s Museum.  We then dive deep into the fascinating story of the infamous character street preacher Robert Lansberry, who Richard also has a connection to.  See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
