About your lecturer:
Marie Carter grew up in Scotland near Edinburgh, a city bubbling with ghost stories. Her father was a bus tour guide in Edinburgh and he would often drive her around town quizzing her on historical facts. She now lives in Astoria, Queens and is a tour guide for Boroughs of the Dead. She created and leads the tour “Haunting Histories and Legends of Astoria” and now also leads a tour in Roosevelt Island. She’s the author of The Trapeze Diaries and the editor of Word Jig: New Fiction from Scotland.
