In addition to Jane Glaser's recent book on museum careers, several past
issues of Journal of Museum Education and its ancestor Roundtable Reports
contained personal odysseys of various sorts.  I don't have the citations
but you could check the indices of back issues contained in the
anthology volumes, Museum Education Anthology and Patterns in Practice,
both, I believe, still available from the Museum Education Roundtable in
DC.  I also vaguely remember Museum News containing either interviews or a
long transcript of a conversation among museum educators within the last
couple or four years but again I can't recall the date.
