Curator Confidential: So Ready for Laughter: Bob Hope and World War II

Join Curator Cristian Petru Panaite and celebrate the golden age of comedy with a tour of our current exhibition So Ready for Laughter: Bob Hope and World War II and the companion exhibition The Gift of Laughter. Organized by the National World War II Museum in New Orleans and supported by the Bob & Dolores Hope Foundation, So Ready for Laughter showcases the story of Hope’s unique place in World War II history and beyond, and the contributions he made that still reverberate more than 70 years later.
