AUTHOR INFORMATION
DIANNE VAN DER REYDEN received an M.A. in arprt history (1979) and a diploma in conservation from the Conservation Center, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University (1980) and a certificate in paper conservation from the Harvard University Art Museums (1981), following internships at the Fogg Art Museum, the Library of Congress, and the Museum of Modern Art. She is a senior paper conservator and co-head of the Paper Conservation Laboratory at the Conservation Analytical Laboratory, Smithsonian Institution, engaged in training of interns and professionals and in research aimed at development and evaluation of paper conservation treatments. Address: Conservation Analytical Laboratory, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560.
