I have contributed to a number of academic conferences, and lectured at many museums, Tate Britain, The Victoria and Albert Museum included, as well for the Royal Oak and the English Speaking Union all over the USA, as well as annually in the UK to the Attingham Summer School, attended by house curators from all over the world, since 2008.

completely to the point and just the right length. What more could one want?”
