<strong>The</strong> Education Department offered an<br />
array of after-school and weekend programs,<br />
internships, and school visits. This year, we<br />
welcomed more than 2,250 middle and high<br />
school students through our guided school<br />
visit program.<br />
Several new colleagues joined us this year.<br />
In Education, Anna Finley came on board as<br />
the department assistant and Viktorya Vilk<br />
became our second Samuel H. Kress Fellow<br />
in Museum Teaching. Curatorial Assistant<br />
Katie Steiner and Research Assistant<br />
Aimee Ng have made excellent additions<br />
to our curatorial staff. Nat Silver, an Italian<br />
Renaissance specialist and Ph.D. student<br />
at University College, London, became our<br />
newest Andrew W. Mellon Curatorial Fellow.<br />
I am extremely pleased to note that this<br />
distinguished two-year pre-doctoral pro-<br />
gram has been renamed in honor of our<br />
esteemed outgoing Director; henceforth,<br />
future participants will be called Anne L.<br />
Poulet Curatorial Fellows.<br />
On this note I would like to say what<br />
a pleasure it has been for all of us to have<br />
worked with Anne Poulet these past eight<br />
years. <strong>The</strong> Curatorial Department is grate-<br />
ful for her tireless efforts in support of our<br />
exhibitions, acquisitions, publications, loans,<br />
and educational and conservation initiatives,<br />
as well as for her staunch commitment to<br />
the highest standards in scholarship and<br />
connoisseurship. We say farewell to a defin-<br />
ing chapter in the <strong>Frick</strong>’s history but look<br />
forward to an exciting year ahead and to wel-<br />
coming our new Director, Ian Wardropper.<br />
Colin B. Bailey<br />
Associate Director and<br />
