I am an archivist and historian for the Library of Congress Manuscript Division. I graduated from the University of Delaware with an MA in American History and certificate from the Museum Studies program in 1992. During graduate school, I worked at the Hagley Museum and Library. I then worked as a curator at the Historical Society of Washington, D.C., the Banneker-Douglass Museum in Annapolis, and participated in the planning of the permanent exhibit at the Lewis Museum in Baltimore, Maryland. I have worked at the Library of Congress since 2002. Currently I am serving my second term on the Board of EAIA. I first learned about EAIA when I was helping my father sell his collection of antique tools and surveying instruments. My goal is to support efforts to share the EAIA’s strong tradition of scholarship more widely by building relationships with educational institutions and historical organizations. When I’m not at EAIA meetings, I love visiting historic sites and gardens.
