The Mysterious Life Of Lee Harvey Oswald

November 1, 2017 @ 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Lee Harvey Oswald

Lee Harvey Oswald was only 24 years when he was killed.  But his 24 years of life are as mysterious and controversial as the life of any 24-year-old ever!

Lee Harvey Oswald

So who was he? Was Lee Harvey Oswald a “semi-educated hillbilly with delusions of grandeur” (in the words of Stephen King) or a super smart, highly trained CIA assassin, or a Mafia hit man or simply a “patsy” who somehow didn’t know what he was doing?

His life had been such a failure that the few official documents about him are testaments to his existence as a loser. School report cards that indicate his unwillingness to comply with rules and his inability to stop committing acts of violence.  A string of firings from menial jobs.  Wife abuse.  Forced psychiatric care.  A wobbly military record.

And then came 11/22/63.

In this absolutely riveting multimedia presentation we will use the actual documented record of Oswald’s life to help build a clear picture of a muddied man.
