Daniel Horowitz is coming to town

Our genea-blogging colleague and friend, Daniel Horowitz, who is the Genealogy and Translation Manager of www.MyHeritage.com is coming to the West Coast for most of the months of June and July. He is speaking at a number of genealogy societies, but would like more "dates" if he can arrange them. Does your society need a speaker for these months? Here is his schedule and contact information (please contact him directly, not through this blog):

--------------------------

My last trip to the US was really exhausting: 16 days, 12 lectures, 9 planes, 5 cities and a lot of very nice people (http://blog.myheritage.com/2010/05/west-coast-genealogy-tour-i/) - but I would gladly do it again.

You never know who can be interested.
