Looking Back on History

When it comes to navigating through life, Glenn Dano is quick to realize that everything relates to history. In his final lap of graduate school, Glenn comes on the podcast to speak about his untraditional path towards focusing on history education and why it is important to learn history.

Brandon K. Hedgepeth is a lifelong learner, communicator, and graduate student who has been a content creator since May 2016. He serves as the host and producer of Tansson Talks show.

Glenn Dano is a current graduate student in Old Dominion University’s history program, and is working to complete his Masters Degree in the Fall 2023 semester. His current studies revolve around the Civil War, focusing on the Post-war period in the American South and is currently aiming his research towards studying the Freedmen’s Bureau, and the ways in which they interacted with the newly freed Black community. In his free time, he enjoys playing competitive card games, Dungeons and Dragons, and dabbling in some amateur Gundam modeling. His goal after graduation is to enter secondary education, and to teach History at the High School level.

Just a friend

Hi, my name is Glenn Dano. I’m a current graduate student in Old Dominion University’s history program, and I am currently on pace to complete my Masters Degree in the Fall 2023 semester. My current studies revolve around the Civil War, focusing on the Post-war period in the American South. I am currently aiming my research towards studying the Freedmen’s Bureau, and the ways in which they interacted with the newly freed Black community. In my free time, I like to play competitive card games, Dungeons and Dragons, and I dabble in some amateur Gundam modeling. My goal after graduation is to enter secondary education, and to teach History at the High School level.
