Join us on Friday, November 16, to celebrate the 189th birthday of Bishop Milton Wright (1829-1917) and the release of his diaries in Wright State University’s online repository, CORE Scholar. Milton Wright’s diaries, spanning 1857-1917, chronicle his remarkable life and offer a unique insight into the Wright family, including his two famous sons Wilbur and Orville. The event will include exhibits of the original diaries, photographs, letters and other rare items documenting Milton’s life, as well as a demonstration of the diaries in CORE Scholar.
