[Michlib-l] Tattoo Program?

[Christine Wedge]

Has anyone hosted a program on tattoos and the history of tattooing?  
Tattoos are increasingly popular in our area and I'd like to explore a 
program which would incorporate a history of the practice in cultures 
like ancient Egypt and move right up into modern changes (tattoos 
becoming more mainstream and shifting to a broader demographic, etc).  I 
could get some local tattoo artists to talk about the work they do and 
interesting tattoos they have created, and there are television 
programs, but I'm interested in a speaker who could address the 
historical and cultural roots of the practice as well.

Recommendations?  Similar programs?  Please advise
