Sheldon Goodman

Historian in London
About Sheldon

Sheldon is a public historian, author and tour guide with over a decade's worth of experience of making history engaging and accessible. Beginning his love of the past through his blog Cemetery Club, Sheldon has since expanded into museums, art galleries and research projects with clients such as the University of Birmingham and The National Archive, specifically championing LGBTQ+, women's and colonial history. A masterful storyteller: his experience of being a former City-boy informs his expert knowledge of the secret alleyways and streets crammed with tales from the past.

Sheldon's favourite tours are in The British Museum, the City of London and The National Gallery - where no tours can ever possibly be the same. Besides guiding, Sheldon is a cemetery historian, keen gardener and pub aficionado.
