Kim-Eric Williams

Kim-Eric Williams and his partner, Ruth Rizzi, worked through 115 years of archives kept by the Swedish Colonial Society to create a gallery devoted to New Sweden history at the recently restored historic Lazaretto in Essington, Pennsylvania. It is open and free to the public on the first Saturday of each month. Kim-Eric is also the historian of the Swedish Colonial Society and in this role made his PBS debut in July on NJ-PBS’s “Drive By History,” in an episode titled “New Sweden: The Untold Story.”
