Justin Riner

Justin has taught middle school English for twenty-three years, performed music for decades, and taken to the stage in a wide variety of situations. He’s brought this experience together with his admiration for Theodore Roosevelt for presentations, performances, and interactions as the twenty-sixth President.

2026 found Justin taking leaps forward in his work as a Roosevelt performer and lecturer. He wrote the foreword for Theodore Roosevelt in California written by Chris Epting and published by History Press. He presented AT the Grand Canyon, helped welcome benefactors to the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library, and engaged with hundreds of guests in Roosevelt’s former hometown of Medora, North Dakota for America 250.

Justin is using his passion for history and performance to live up to Roosevelt’s idea that “The best prize life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.”
