ALUMNI VOICES: JAN SEIDLER RAMIREZ, CLASS OF 1973 LEFT Jan Seidler Ramirez '73 at a lunch with Dartmouth students during the 2019 symposium "The New Now: Art, Museums, and the Future." Jan Seidler Ramirez '73, the Founding Chief Curator and Executive Vice President of Collections at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum, recently participated in the Hood's "The New Now: Art, Museums, and the Future" symposium. Hosted in celebration of Dartmouth's 250th anniversary and the reopening of the Hood, the symposium showcased alumni who have gone on to careers in museums through panel sessions and a reception. Learn more about Jan's career below. What have you been up to since you graduated from Dartmouth? Except for a graduate school layover and time spent writing my dissertation (which often felt interminable), I've worked continuously in the museum field, mainly in the curatorial arena. That constancy may not seem very adventurous. But like the proverbial duck, I discovered the ideal pond for my career interests early on, never leaving this habitat, except for once. Briefly, I hung out a shingle as an independent consultant. Although the diversity of clients and projects kept me on my toes, I missed having colleagues; I missed the familiarity of museum policies and practices; and I missed having access to the idea bank represented in an institutional collection. I folded my freelancer's tent after a year's experiment and gratefully returned to the museum as my employment homeport.

Boston University’s Alumni Magazine GRS alum ensures lives lost on 9/11 don’t disappear from history Jan Seidler Ramirez (GRSu201985), 9/11 Memorial Museum chief curator, says that because 9/11 was u201cone of the searing social, political, and cultural events that affected all forms of human expression, we were going to collect all forms of human expression.u201d Each letter in the quote behind Ramirez is made from recovered World Trade Center steel. Photo by Chris Sorensen The conference table was bare except for a biohazard bag. Jan Seidler Ramirez, chief curator of the as-yet-unbuilt 9/11 Memorial Museum, waited in silence as Eileen Fagan unsealed the bag. It contained a charred pocketbook that had belonged to Eileen’s sister, Patricia, an Aon insurance adjuster who had worked on the 93rd floor of the World Trade Center’s South Tower. Ramirez found that “there was nowhere else to look but at that pocketbook” as Fagan lovingly removed its contents: a pair of glasses, a rosary, a change purse for alms, prayer cards, and two tubes of lipstick. As she set each item on the table, Fagan explained to Ramirez and her colleagues that her sister had enjoyed chatting with the local teens who worked summer jobs at Macy’s. To boost their sales, she’d buy lipstick, always the same shade of pink. “We were so worried about Eileen, and how emotional this must have been for her,” says Ramirez (GRS’85). “This was her only sister—and all she was concerned about was us.” Fagan asked how Ramirez and her colleagues were coping with their heartrending work and promised to pray for them as they met with other victims’ families. She donated her sister’s pocketbook to the museum, then only in the planning stage. Ramirez was moved by “her grace and her faith that we were going to be able to honor her sister,” she says. “It was such a profound moment for me and my staff as curators.”
