An Introduction to Exhibition Outcomes, LLC
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Alex Revzan and I have always loved history and museums. I did my undergraduate work at Lake Forest College where I graduated with a BA in History. After that, I went on to receive my MA in Public History from Northern Illinois University. In early 2015, shortly after graduating from NIU, I was one of two historians who discovered previously lost footage of the wreck of the S.S. Eastland as it lay capsized in the Chicago River. Subsequently, I have worked in a variety of museum roles and in 2022 I struck out on my own and founded Exhibition Outcomes, LLC .
As a freelance historian I have had the opportunity to work on a wide variety of projects. I lectured on, and then developed a walking tour focused on The Great Chicago Fire of 1871. I wrote a guided tour for a museum exhibition highlighting the architecture of Louis H. Sullivan and the photography of Richard S. Nickel. Additionally, I have created social media content for several different clients.
While most of my recent work has focused on Chicago history, I have experience with a number of different historical fields. I have researched and written on topics as diverse as the history of the Irish nationalist movement, vice and reform in the late 19th and early 20th century, and the history of the duel of honour among others. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing how I can help your institution develop outstanding educational content.
