Ed was born in Western Pa and began telling stories at an early age however, the nuns at school didn't appreciate those stories and he soon learned there was a time and a place for them! His parents brought him out to Gettysburg several times as he was growing up and he fell in love with the battlefield and town, coming out through his college years when he could. When the chance to relocate to Gettysburg arose, he jumped on it and has been here ever since. He began telling stories with Sleepy Hollow soon after in 1997 and is one of their original guides. He has been doing tours and enjoying spending time with the guests on those tours for longer than most of the tour companies in town have existed!

Nancy has been telling stories since she was old enough to talk! Her father was a renowned story-teller and Nancy credits him with her love of both hearing and telling stories.
