Lisa Saunders

Lisa Saunders seeks adventures to find humorous or historical stories. She recently finished walking 360 miles across the State of New York on the Erie Canalway Trail in search of "The 7 Wonders" to raise awareness of a leading cause of birth defects, congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV), which causes autism and hearing loss. Lisa also continues to scour old documents to shed new light on ancestors who made a difference in American history, including Mayflower passenger Richard Warren, known for enduring severe hardships to ensure the survival of the colony; Capt. Benjamin Church, considered the Father of American Army Rangers, for utilizing Native American stealthy war tactics; Revolutionary War veteran Captain Henry Gale, sentenced to hang for trying to protect war veterans from unfair debt practices; and Civil War private, Charles McDowell, one of the last off the field in the “battle that saved Washington.” She interviews other history makers on PAC-B TV.
