Roy joined us in 2013 as a curatorial assistant and then was promoted in 2014 to assistant curator of art. Earlier this year she was named interim curator of art after Lugene B. Bruno (assistant curator, 1996–2009; acting curator, 2009–2010; curator, 2010–2022) retired. An interview with Roy will be in the fall issue of our Bulletin.
