About Me

Tagline
21st Century Abe: Abe Lincoln Bicentennial!
Me, Myself, and I
Abraham Lincoln, America’s 16th President, was born two hundred years ago. Happy birthday Abe!

We find Abe everywhere from advertising to political punditry. What does this popular Abe have to do with the historical Abe? 21st-Century Abe has six months to tackle these questions and we need your answers.

Contribute to our ever-growing collection of media revealing the relevance of Abe today. Explore thirty Lincoln documents from the Rosenbach Museum & Library that give glimpses into Lincoln's thoughts and beliefs.

Join scholar and author Douglas Wilson, co-director of the Lincoln Studies Center; visual artist Maira Kalman; Bryce Dessner, (member of the band The National); and multi-media artists Archive (Anne Walsh and Chris Kubick) as they reflect on these documents and provide their own creative interpretations.

But let's not stop there! Your responses—in words, songs, videos, photos, drawings, web links, whatever — define 21st-Century Abe. Together we'll find our Abe!
