About the Presenter

Casey Piket, with deep roots in Miami, developed an interest in researching and writing about Miami’s history. He started the Miami-History Blog in 2012 and maintains several social media sites to share and engage those interested in Miami and South Florida history. Casey and Dr. Paul George have worked together to create compelling video content for the Miami History Channel, entertaining and educating the Miami History Channel members about a place that the founders cherish.

The Miami Pioneers is Dade County’s legacy historical organization, originally founded in 1936 by prominent settlers and business leaders who arrived in Miami in the pioneer era before the year 1900. The Natives of Dade was incorporated in 1986 by a group of local history enthusiasts born in Dade County. The groups merged on July 8, 2002.
