Maribeth Made the Archives an Incredible Experience - Our tour of the National Archives with Maribeth was absolutely outstanding. From the moment it began, it was clear how knowledgeable and passionate she is about the Archives and its incredible history. She brought the documents and exhibits to life with context, stories, and insights that went far beyond what you’d expect from a standard tour. What I appreciated most was that Maribeth never rushed us—she took her time to answer every question thoughtfully and ensured we could truly absorb and appreciate what we were seeing. Her enthusiasm was contagious, and she made the entire experience both educational and enjoyable. Thanks to Maribeth, this tour was one of the highlights of our trip. I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone who wants to experience the National Archives in a meaningful, engaging, and memorable way.
