Why Aren’t More Top Museums Led By Women? Asks New York Times Op-Ed

Sonnet Stanfill, curator at the Victoria and Albert Museum: “In 2015, the world’s top 12 art museums as based on attendance – what I call the ‘directors’ dozen’ – were all led by men. When Frances Morris became the director of the Tate Modern in April, she became the first woman to join the club. This gender gap extends from Europe to North America, where only five of the 33 directors of the most prominent museums (those with operating budgets of more than $20 million) are women.”
