Celebrating 250 Years of American History
For the past 55 years, I personally and through my businesses have been uniquely connected to our nation's founding history through my chosen specialty in American Material Culture, beginning with objects from the Revolutionary period and before and particularly the Federal period that followed. I am proud to be an American and to have had the privilege to curate many thousands of objects that were a part of our nation's history and its development and transformation from a revolutionary outpost to a world-leading society and symbol of individual freedom.
