Michael Burgan from George Washington Carver: Scientist, Inventor, and Teacher 2
He was active in the Welsh Eclectic Society, a jovial debating club… The meetings were carried on in a mock courtroom style […and…] sometimes he sang or played an instrument […and…] gave standup comedy presentations, such as a satire of a concert pianist wrecking a piano.
