i've noticed that some museum education departments have museum
professionals that have turned to education, whereas others have education
professionals that have turned to museums.
i was wondering whether the "best" museum educators have backgrounds in
formal (classroom) teaching, or if they have an advanced degree and an
interest in non-formal education.
what are some of the experiences of the people on the list?
