Baltimore revolutionized by Ship Building and the Railroad. Jonathan joined the B & O museum in September 2019 as chief curator and provides leadership and management of the museum's interpretation, exhibitions, collections, archives, restoration, and education teams, ensuring both the care of the museum's unparalleled objects as well as producing engaging programming and experiences for visitors.
