Location: Berger Auditorium (Room 207), McClelland Hall, 1130 East Helen Street
Book Signing: 4:00-5:00 p.m.
While the UAMA celebrates a joyful conclusion to its Woman-Ochre saga, Anthony Amore – Director of Security and Chief Investigator at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum – hopes for a similarly happy ending. He is charged with ongoing efforts to recover thirteen works stolen from the Gardner Museum on March 18, 1990 – the single largest property theft in the world.
During this in-person talk at the Eller College’s McClelland Hall, Amore will take a deep dive into the world of art crime, imparting his wisdom as both an investigator and security practitioner. The best-selling author will also be available to sign his book “The Woman Who Stole Vermeer: The True Story of Rose Dugdale and the Russborough House Heist” beforehand, from 4:00-5:00 p.m. The UArizona Bookstore will have copies for purchase, and UAMA Members in attendance will receive a complimentary copy.
