History of Port Washington Lighthouse, WI

Join Marie A. Blunt, author of The Lighthouses of Port Washington, as she tells tales of our sister lighthouse in Wisconsin. An avid lighthouse enthusiast for over two decades, Marie has seen over 500 lighthouses across the US and Canada. She travels with her photographer husband, Allan, incorporating his vibrant pictures into her presentations and publications. As part of their goal to help keep the lights lit, the Blunts served as volunteer Port Washington resident lighthouse keepers last summer.
