Bio
Watch Laura Beiles, Assistant Director of Public Programs, Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), share how her love of art and public speaking led to a career in museum education. She credits her experience as an intern at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice with lighting that spark. To achieve her goal of learning to speak Italian, she entered an immersion program at Middlebury College where she signed a pact not to speak a word of English for seven weeks.
