Join us for a conversation with Ann Glasscock, the Associate Curator at the Taft Museum of Art in Cincinnati, OH and a contributor to the Crafted World of Wharton Esherick exhibition catalog. We’ll be discussing how the exhibition fits in with the history and collection of the Taft Museum of Art and how Esherick’s work speaks to Cincinnati’s rich tradition of wood carving. Plus, we’ll have a chance to hear about Ann Glasscock’s own research interests, her contributions to the catalog, and why she is no stranger to Wharton Esherick’s life, work, and legacy.

Ann Glasscock, PhD is the Associate Curator at the Taft Museum of Art and a decorative arts specialist. Prior to joining TMA, Ann worked for the Chazen Museum of Art in Madison, Wisconsin, the Chipstone Foundation in Milwaukee, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and Freeman’s auction in Philadelphia as a silver specialist. Ann received her doctorate from University of Madison-Wisconsin, and her dissertation focused on the mid-century silversmith Hudson Roshyer.
