Aviva,
You have to be a bit more specific as to your interests and career
aspirations. Here at the Holocaust Museum, like in any museum
setting, there are a multitude of departments. We have collections,
exhibitions, public programs, research (photo archives, oral history,
textual archives, academic publications, library, etc.), conservation
and preservation, communications, education, finance, and fundraising
-- where I am.
There are other staff members on the list who can share with you their
educational backgrounds and how they got here. I have an MPA (Master
in Public Administration). This education focused on government and
non-profit management. I began my career at the Kennedy Center -- was
there for 5 years -- and have been here for a little over one year.
If you want to talk with me, please give me a call.
Susan Grant
Grants Officer

I don't know if anyone can answer this, but.... I am a high school
senior interested in one day working in a museum (Holocaust Museum in
Wasjington, D.C.). Any advice on good college majors or schools to look
at? What paths to take? Suggestions?
Thanx 4 ur help - Aviva Selekman
