Hello, I'm Spfdeutch, aka Samantha, and am currently employed by The Frick Collection's Center for the History of Collecting at the Frick Art Reference Library and am the editor/author of the Center’s Archives Directory for the History of Collecting.

I have both a BA and MA in Art History as well as an MLIS. Aside from my life long affection for art and research, I am an avid SCUBA diver and love all things “ocean” my favorite being the shark.
