She conveys the greatness of historical figures through solo performances
Harriet Tubman, an escaped slave who participated in a network of safe houses known as the Underground Railroad, stood on the stage alone talking about her life. “On my underground I never ran my train off the track and I never lost a passenger,” she said proudly. Portraying Tubman was Annette Hubbell, an author and actress who depicts historical figures in a unique way — alone on stage through first-person accounts of their lives.
” Born in 1948 and raised in San Diego, Hubbell has never taken acting lessons or even acted until 2009. She has a bacheor's degree in marketing from San Diego State and an MBA from Cal State San Marcos. She began as a secretary at Fotomat and worked her way, through education and experience, to become general manager of a water district. In 2007, Hubbell and her husband, Monte, since deceased, traveled east on a vacation and attended a re-enactment performance near Gettysburg.
