Author Biography:

Tim Betz is a museum professional and educator. He has worked in programming, curatorial, education, and management of small historic sites, including the Red Mill Museum Village in Clinton, NJ, and the Morgan Log House in Lansdale, PA, and is particularly passionate about the ways that hands-on processes and experiences can unlock the past. He also teaches art history at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania, in Kutztown PA, where he focuses on the art of the Spanish Empire. Betz applies a spirit of making to education and teaches courses where students learn about art through a combination of hands-on historical making methodologies and lectures, including courses on medieval manuscript illumination and the materials of the Renaissance Italian artist. He is completing his doctorate in history at Lehigh University, focusing on collecting and the material culture of the Spanish Atlantic. Previously, he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania.
