The 2021 Jacob Leisler Institute Lecture series, in co-operation with the Hudson Area Library, kicked off with Institute Director David W. Voorhees presenting a talk on the “Turkish Captivity” of Jacob Leisler.
The Jacob Leisler Institute lecture series is made possible through the generous support of the Van Dyke Family Association.
The inaugural lecture of the Jacob Leisler Institute Lecture series, co-hosted by the Hudson Area Library and the Gotham History Center, took place on February 22, 2018. The Institute thanks Brenda Shufelt and Emily Chameides of the Hudson Area Library, Andrea Mosterman of the Gotham History Center, and Tina Lesem of the Leisler Institute for their help in bringing this effort to fruition, and filmmaker Dan Udell for producing this video.
