Today, he serves as spokesperson and researcher for RMS Titanic Inc., Creative Director of TITANIC: HONOR AND GLORY, and host of the WITNESS TITANIC podcast. James recently joined the exciting 2024 Titanic Expedition to lend his knowledge and passion for this legendary ship. :45 RMS Titanic, Inc. is the company that was granted salvage rights to the wreck of the RMS Titanic by a United States Federal Court order in 1994 and reconfirmed again in 1996. The court award includes the exclusive rights to recover the artifacts from the wreck site. They’re the ONLY group allowed to do that. Using Titanic’s artifacts in concert with scientific data and social history, RMS Titanic, Inc. brings to life TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition. Their mission is to preserve the legacy of Titanic’s maiden voyage, subsequent sinking, and the memory of her passengers and crew through care and display of our recovered artifacts, comprehensive educational programs, innovative exhibitions, research and recovery initiatives, wreck site imaging and analysis, and ongoing Titanic collaborations.
