Autorenporträt
Kathy S. Moses, a Philadelphia native, has been a newspaper reporter with The Philadelphia Bulletin and has worked in historic preservation for ten years-with a restoration architect, then for a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning engineering firm that specialized in museums and historic buildings, and as a museum director. She was the Executive Director of The Ebenezer Maxwell Mansion, a Victorian historic house museum with gardens and a restoration library, before moving to Nashville, Tennessee, where she resides today. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin, attended the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School of Communications, and holds a graduate degree in Historic Preservation from The University of Pennsylvania. Ms. Moses is gallery director at Shelton Gallery in Nashville, which specializes in Southern folk and outsider art, 19th- and 20th-century American art, and the work of contemporary artist Red Grooms. She has written for national magazines and serves on the grant review panel of the Metropolitan Nashville Arts Commission, helping to decide how public funds are allotted to local arts organizations. Her varied career has had one central theme, an intense interest in people-how they act, how they live, and how they create.
