Abstract Public historians have long been putting history to work in meaningful ways, cultivating collaborative opportunities, building partnerships, and engaging with the public. In times of economic uncertainty, communicating the relevance of history and the work of historians is more important than ever. This article suggests ways to apply marketing communication principles to connect public historians with their audience. This article is a revised version of the presidential address delivered March 13, 2010 at the National Council on Public History's annual meeting in Portland, Oregon. Marking the thirtieth anniversary of the incorporation of NCPH, it recaps the origins and evolution of the organization over three decades, and proposes an action plan for its growth into the future.

The Yearbook of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, published last February, contains much of permanent importance, and in particular two papers by men of foremost authority and influence. One is by Professor E. H. Moore, his presidential address to the American Mathematical Society in 1902, a plan for progress and a hopeful forecast at the beginning of the new century; the other a cheerful summary of progress since that time and some indication of present tendencies by David Eugene Smith.

This revised version of the presidential address delivered at the National Council on Public History's annual meeting in Washington, D.C. extrapolates the question of succession within the leadership of the cultural resources management (CRM) industry to public history in general. A shift in leadership is beginning to occur both within CRM and within public history. The paper explores some of the issues associated with succession and attempts to outline a basic approach to educating the next generation of public historians.
