1 month, 6 days, 19 hours agoJust recently Timothy Rub, museum director and chief executive of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, named Gail Harrity as the president of the museum. There has been no president since 1996, when Robert Montgomery Scott left. Ms. Harrity has been the chief operating officer of the museum since 1997. With this appointment she faces new challenges, that she looks forwards to meeting. One such challenge is the underground expansion of the museum that will cost more than $500 million. She recognizes that this will need to be a group effort in fund raising in these economically trying times, but sounds hopeful.
