The Office of the United States Marshal is one of the oldest—and perhaps least understood—federal institutions in our nation’s history. From enforcing order during the Whiskey Rebellion to pursuing justice in the Old West, from the Reconstruction era to the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine, U.S. Marshals have played a crucial role in shaping America.

Join David Kennedy, Curator of Collections & Exhibits, for an engaging, interactive session exploring how, since 1789, the Marshals have served as the “teeth” of the federal courts—the first federal law enforcement officers tasked with upholding justice and tackling the jobs no one else could.

Participants will dive into stories of political intrigue, true crime, the Founding Fathers, Civil Rights, and the Wild West through artifacts, case studies, and discussion. Learn how this dynamic agency earned its reputation as “the other duties” arm of the government—taking on everything from capturing outlaws to protecting witnesses and securing vaccines. This session offers a compelling, hands-on look at the evolution of American law enforcement and the enduring legacy of the U.S. Marshals.
