A native of Pennsylvania, Wittenberg earned his bachelor’s degree at Dickinson College in Carlisle. He subsequently received a juris doctor degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law.

In addition to practicing law in Columbus, Ohio and writing books and articles, Wittenberg leads battlefield tours and is the program chairman of the Chambersburg Civil War Seminars program.

Wittenberg’s lecture will begin at 5 p.m. in the Copper Auditorium located on the lower level of the Civic Center branch of the Scottsdale Public Library, 3839 N. Drinkwater Blvd. Doors open at 4 p.m.
