Anne-Eliza Lewis, Collections Manager
Anne-Eliza comes to us from New York State, where she was the executive director of the Columbia County Historical Society. A historical archeologist by trade, Anne-Eliza earned her Ph.D. from Boston University and has done research on American history through material culure, using objects instead of documents to look at history. She is the steward of our collections and plans to improve the collection's housing while modernizing the preservation and cataloguing systems. Anne-Eliza will also ensure there is a system for students to have access to the collections and get hands-on experience with specimens.
