American Portraits: James Garfield

Jeff discusses the lengthy and consequential public life of James Garfield, ending with his tragic death after being shot shortly after taking office. There’s a lot more to this man than a short presidency, however, and we’re thankful to have been joined by Todd Arrington of the National Park Service. Todd serves as the director of the Garfield historical site outside of Cleveland, OH – you can find more information here: https://www.nps.gov/jaga/index.htm
