Consultants work freelance or in established firms on projects ranging from National Register nominations, to court cases and corporate histories, to advising neighborhood associations, local government, and museums. With the help of the NCPH Consultants Committee we have compiled several resources for those seeking consultant or proposal information:
See our NCPH Consultants List for individuals who are members of NCPH and who present themselves as historical consultants. Potential clients/employers are invited to contact them directly to request work proposals, resumes, samples of work, or references.
Consulting Comments now appears as a regular column in Public History News. NCPH is committed to promoting the interests of its members who provide historical services as consultants. This column seeks to highlight new developments and achievements in historical consulting and contact work. Please send news of events and accomplishments to Heather Lee Miller, Consultants Committee, at hmiller@hrassoc.com. Be sure to include your full name and address.
