Nicholas Stubblefield, a proud former member of the Heather Cox Richardson posse, is a writer and stand-up comedian based in Boston. He's won awards, though none that you've heard of. Idaho is home. He celebrates landscape architect, author, conservationist and public servant, Frederick Law Olmsted, who designed some of America’s most celebrated landmarks, from New York’s Central Park to the U.S. Capitol Grounds and Chicago’s Jackson Park.

I am learning so much with each 250. I especially love reading about the conservationists such as Mr. Olmsted. Thank you, Mr. Stubblefield for bringing this history to life. Still, I wonder how can one join the HCR posse?
