    Miami History with Seth H. Bramson

    Join local historian Seth H. Bramson as he explores Miami history in a talk at the new Student Success Center on MDC's Homestead Campus. Known as "Mr. Miami Memorabilia," Bramson gives material form to history, offering the audience a unique opportunity to view objects selected from his vast personal collection, one of the largest accumulations of Florida collectibles and ephemera. Many of the objects selected for this program relate directly to the history of the City of Homestead itself.

    Seth H. Bramson is a lifelong Miamian and America's senior collector of Florida East Coast Railway, Florida transportation, and Miami memorabilia as well as other Floridiana. The most published author of Florida history, he has written thirty-three books. Among them are Coral Gables, Miami: The Magic City, and Miami Beach, all from the Images of America series. He is an Adjunct Professor of Extended Learning and Historian in Residence at Barry University in Miami, where he teaches courses on Florida history.

    This event is free and open to the public. Advance registration is required.
