Chattanooga History Makers

A city’s soul is inextricably connected to the human endeavor of its citizens. They are the lifeblood of the community. Without them, small towns and looming metropolises everywhere would slowly shrivel up and die. Join WTCI as it presents, in cooperation with the Chattanooga History Center, this locally produced program honoring the people and organizations that had the guts to make a difference in Chattanooga.

Fletcher Bright and the Dismembered Tennesseans are honored with the 2009 History Makers Award, presented by the Chattanooga History Center.
