Mr. Graham is a retired Pennsylvania state park manager, always involved in operation and maintenance of historic sites to include colonial-era farms, grist mills, iron furnaces, and farmstead buildings. Since retirement in 2005, Mr. Graham and his wife have spent a part of each summer as docents at 17 DIFFERENT LIGHTHOUSES across the U.S. and Canada. He writes ARTICLES on LIGHTHOUSE HISTORY, operation, and LORE for both the “Lighthouse Digest” magazine, and for the “Keeper’s Log” magazine of the U.S. Lighthouse Society.
