Museum Person
I’m a museum person, y’know?
This doesn’t have anything to do with going to graduate school for Museum Studies. Most museum people haven’t. (But I certainly wouldn’t have the same experience or perspective if I hadn’t attended JFKU.)
Museum people love museums. It’s just that simple. We’re like dog people: they might have preferences for certain breeds, but they just like the “dogness” of them all.
I’ve been lucky to have worked in art, history and science museums. Each experience has presented its own challenges and rewards, and, ultimately, I’ve enjoyed them all.
