Dr. Elliot Engel returns to Piedmont Arts with the lecture, “Blackbeard! Pirate Enemy Number One,” on Thursday, Oct. 2.
Many know that Blackbeard has one of the most fearsome reputations of any pirate in history.

Engel lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he has taught at NC State University, the University of North Carolina and Duke University. He earned an M.A. and Ph.D. from UCLA and was awarded that university's Outstanding Teacher Award. He has written ten books published in England, Japan, Turkey and the United States. His mini-lecture series on Charles Dickens aired on PBS stations nationwide. His articles have appeared in numerous newspapers and national magazines. He has lectured throughout the United States and on all the continents, including Antarctica. He was inducted into the Royal Society of Arts in England in 2009 for his academic work and service in promoting Charles Dickens.
