IMLS Director Talks Conservation on Radio Program
From the announcement:
Please listen to an online radio interview with Anne-Imelda Radice, Ph.D., Director of the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services on AARP’s PrimeTime Radio at http://radioprimetime.org/radio.htm.
In the lively interview, Radice describes experiences that shaped her commitment to conservation. She talks about being a teen volunteer who helped care for art damaged during the devastating 1966 flood in Florence, Italy, about her experience as the first director of the National Museum of Women in the Arts (1983-1989), and her tenure as Architectural Historian and Curator of the Office of the Architect of the U.S. Capitol (1976 to 1981). She also spells out differences in the terms ‘preservation,’ ‘conservation,’ and ‘restoration’ and describes how the field of conservation has changed over time.
