I think Lisa Falk has a very nieve concept of what bountiful rewards await the
museum professional.  A lot of us live under this $25,000 poverty line to be ab
le to work in a museum.  Is it fair?  No.  Is it impossible?  Certainly not.  W
here did the idea of museum work as an inroad to wealth and fame come from?
Downsizing and low wages for overqualified staff is nothing new, and it looks l
ike it's going to get worse.  Hopefully something will reverse this trend.
