Aaron Meisinger, the Interpretive Programs Manager at Historic St. Mary’s City, began working at HSMC in 1986 as a living history interpreter while completing his Bachelor of Science/Communication Arts degree from James Madison University. He had no idea how his degree would parlay into a career until he started working at Maryland’s 1st Colonial Capital (and he has been here ever since).

HSMC Experience includes 35 years portraying various 17th-century people for the public, scriptwriting, directing, training, and developing traditional as well as out-of-the-box living history programming.
