NOLA.com: Meet HNOC’s Deputy Director Erin Greenwald

“Museums operate from an interesting position within American society. Museums generally are considered trusted institutions, and we take that responsibility and trust very seriously. We look to present programming in partnership, often, with people whose stories are being told. We also want to make sure that people are seeing their stories in the exhibitions that we are presenting. It's a critical part of being in the world of public history—to create connections for people but also for people to help us make connections.”
