DR. DON LAFRENIERE
(Project Director)
I am the Director of the Keweenaw Time Traveler and the Historical Environments Spatial Analytic Lab.  I am a life-long historical geographer and expert in geographic information systems.  I have a deep appreciation for the history and heritage of the Copper Country and find both the villages and the industrial remnants around the region to provide an amazing laboratory to study our social and environmental history.  My research focuses on building new ways for the public to learn about the history of places through the use of maps and historical data.  I also study the impact of how we build our cities impacts our livelong health, how past people commuted to school and work, and social processes like mobility, segregation, and the creation of strong sense of place
