Stewart's roots on the Eastern
Shore are deep. Since 1780, there has been a Barroll practicing law
in Chestertown. As might be expected, history has been a life-long
interest for him. He has been involved as a reenactor and local
historian for many years and has appeared as an extra in many
historical films, including Civil War films for various National Park
Service visitors centers at National Battlefield Parks.
As well as his involvement as a
co-owner and general counsel of Historical Entertainment, LLC, he
serves as a Board Member and Secretaryfor Historical Films, Inc., a
non-profit film maker for whom H.E. has worked many times in the
past. He also represents as an attorney the 7th US Colored Troops
reenactment group in Maryland and is co-organizer of the Annual Kent
County Civil War Commemoration Event.
As a reenactor, historian and
experienced film extra, as well as a highly regarded attorney,
Stewart is uniquely placed to understand our business and is just as
likely to be shouldering a musket as he is to be writing a contract
with a film producer on our behalf.
