Join Eliot Ness expert Rebecca Mc Farland as she presents insightful photos and stories about Eliot Ness that you won't get from the movies!
Eliot Ness served as Cleveland's Safety Director for Mayor Harold Burton during the years of 1935 to 1941. In these short years, Eliot Ness made an impact on the city of Cleveland that has lasted for generations. Ness held this position at a time when our city was very corrupt; regarded as the most dangerous city in the United States. Within a few short years, we were awarded the "National Safety Award" thanks to Eliot's relentless pursuit of justice and honesty. Two of his 3 wives were popular in their own right within the artistic community of Cleveland. McFarland shares photos and stories about Eliot Ness that you won't get from the movies - because, in this case, the truth is more fascinating than fiction.
