Kelsey Anilee Smith has loved all things old from a young age. Growing up with folks who collected remnants of the past and shared history, this was practically an inherited trait. Nevertheless, it was a passion of her own and led her to earning a bachelor or arts in history from Cleveland State University and an master of arts in museum studies from Indiana University—Purdue University Indianapolis.
