Joanna Hurd

As Associate Paper Conservator & Associate Photo Conservator, Joanna assesses condition and treatment needs, documents findings in reports, and treats a wide range of objects, including works of art on paper, photographs, and archival materials.

Joanna spent five years exploring the different fields of conservation before specializing in paper conservation with a minor in photograph conservation in graduate school. She has since interned at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Weissman Preservation Center, and the American Philosophical Society. She is thrilled to continue evolving at the Center after enriching experiences as both an intern and post-graduate fellow. Joanna received an MS in Art Conservation from the Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation and a BA in Art History from Boston University.
