  • An Interview with Algernon Ward

    Joining the veil today is Algernon Ward. As an African American, Algernon says that wearing the uniform of a colonial so ... Moreldier is a vocation.

    Calling it “a privilege and a pleasure” to continue to do his part to help expose the previously ignored role that people of color, both free and slave, played in founding America, Ward himself now has a new and unique place in telling that story.

    Born and raised in Trenton, he regularly offers active performances as a Colonial Soldier, Civil War Soldier, or Needham Roberts, also known as the “Harlem Hellfighter” of World War I. Algernon's image is now immortalized, thanks to its inclusion in a recent painting by prominent traditional academic realist painter Don Troiani, titled “Brave Men As They Always Fought.” Less
