Rebecca Ortenberg
Content Strategist, Writer, Public Historian
Hi there. I'm Rebecca Ortenberg.
As a content strategist and public historian with more than ten years of experience in museums, historic sites, and higher education institutions, I have dedicated myself to telling and promoting stories that educate, provoke action, and meet people where they are. I believe that the best organizations run on enthusiastic collaboration and good spreadsheets, that goals should always be defined before digital tools are identified, and that history has never been neutral.
Originally from Southern California, I have a B.A. in history and theater from Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon, and an M.A. in history museum studies from the Cooperstown Graduate Program in Cooperstown, New York. I currently reside in Philadelphia.
