S.F.’s New Museum
The executive director of the Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD), which opened in November in San Francisco, is V. Denise Bradley (MBA ’86). Bradley (right), who came to MoAD from London’s South Bank Centre and who had previously worked at Warner Bros. and Walt Disney International, is excited about her new position and the chance to offer “a unique, world-class museum experience for everyone.” (Among MoAD’s largest individual donors are Arthur Rock MBA ’51 and his wife, Toni Rembe.)
Through commissioned original works; global traveling exhibitions; and film, video, and multimedia presentations, the museum tells the remarkable story of the African diaspora. “This is a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Bradley said. “MoAD is designed to inform and educate people about humanity’s origins in Africa as well as about the dispersal movement that populated the world. It is a humbling challenge to present humanity’s complexities in ways that are informative, entertaining, and motivating for a broad range of audiences, but we’re eager to do the job.”
