As part of my book research (for Beard: A Memoir of a Marriage, Oct 2025), I came across all these fascinating stories of bearddom. Been having fun making these little videos, Beard on Beard(s). This time around it’s Florence Balcombe (aka Mrs. Bram Stoker).

In one of my previous jobs, I taught The Odyssey five times a day, five days a week, for four years (from Jan to Feb each year). I’ve had a Ralph Fiennes thing since he was Heathcliff (with Juliette Binoche) in the 90’s. So how am I just realizing this was coming?!! youtu.be/N8Ug0R8_o0o?...
