Andrew Masich is the director of the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh, and a member of the AAM Accreditation Commission. Andy’s narrative illustrates the recent research by Reach Advisors, exploring how childhood memories influence attitudes towards museums and what kids choose to do when they grow up.
We would love to hear how your childhood experiences influenced your choice of career! For example, did you (like Ms. Silvia) create your own museum while you were growing up? Please share in the comments section, below, or send us a video of your memories!
