Kelli Huggins
Catskill Center Visitor Experience Coordinator
Catskill Mountains, New York
Hi! I am a historian, museum educator, and amateur artist with a penchant for the bizarre and forgotten. I work for the Catskill Center in Upstate New York doing visitor experience, exhibits, and, more recently, social media. My favorite project is making history comics we share on our blog. I was previously the Education Coordinator at the Chemung County Historical Society in Elmira, NY. I was a 2018 MCN Scholar.
I’m a specialist in animal history and my current book project is about canine celebrity in the 1800s that focuses on Railroad Jack and Owney, two real-life, famous train-riding dogs. Seriously. Please go ahead and ask me about it.
