I am the primary blog writer for the Ava Gardner Museum’s official blog. I frequently write or co-write articles, drawing on the museum’s collection for relevant artifacts, images, and archival documents to include, highlight, or center blog posts around. The blog serves as an extension of the museum by offering an avenue of virtually available outreach content.
Visit the museum’s website to browse all recent posts: www.avagardner.org/blog.
