Joe Wiegand is considered the world's premiere Theodore Roosevelt repriser. As an actor and historian, Wiegand's portrayals of Theodore Roosevelt in live performances and in television and film have people wondering if TR has come back to life. Performances at the White House and TR's New York City birthplace highlighted the 50-state adventure. He has been featured as President Roosevelt in The Men Who Built America on the History Channel, served as the model for the newest TR sculpture at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, and has a feature role in National Parks Adventure a film about our national parks still showing in IMAX theaters throughout the country.
