A Visit From Will Dilg

Steven Marking plays Will Dilg in an inspiring one-man movie entitled A Visit From Will Dilg. After suffering from the drowning death of his son in the early 1920”s, Dilg rose from the depths of depression to lead an extraordinary national crusade by forming the Izaak Walton League. Then, with the support of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs of America they saved a 261 mile stretch of Mississippi River backwaters from drainage for agriculture by forming a great national preserve, The Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge.
