On Season 1 of our podcast “A Closer Look,” we’re exploring museum jobs: why we wanted them, how we got them, and what they’re really like! Through a series of conversations with colleagues, hosts Tara Metal and Michael Ricca will seek to demystify the museum world, discuss some surprising career paths, and explore jobs you may never have considered.

In this episode of A Closer Look, we talk to Angela Chang, who is the head of our object lab, an objects conservator, and the assistant director of the Straus Center for Conservation and Technical Studies. Angela, who has worked at the Harvard Art Museums for eighteen years, discusses her training and experience, including working on the team that conserved and restored the famed murals by John Singer Sargent at the Boston Public Library. Interested in becoming an art conservator? This episode is for you!
