American Folk Art Museum Names New Director

The embattled American Folk Art Museum will continue working to right itself under the direction of newly appointed director Anne-Imelda Radice (pictured), the New York institution’s board of trustees announced this week. Radice, who holds a doctorate in art and architectural history (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) as well as an MBA (American University), recently served as the director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, an independent U.S. federal agency that supports museums and libraries of all types.
