Anna Gibson Holloway

4.3/5 ( ratings)
Anna Gibson Holloway is the former curator of the award-winning USS Monitor Center at The Mariners' Museum in Newport News, VA, where she was also Vice President of Collections and Programs. In her long career as a public historian, she has been a pirate, a square-rig sailor, a hurdy-gurdy player, a puppeteer, an understudy fire-eater, college professor, and also served as the maritime historian for the National Park Service in Washington, DC. She holds a PhD and MA in history from the College of William & Mary, and undergraduate degrees from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Her current research focuses on the Battle of Hampton Roads in popular culture, the Oyster Wars of the lower Chesapeake Bay, and the marine salvage firm of B & J Baker & Co. of Norfolk, VA. And yes, those do all go together. Sort of.

She is currently the Museum Services Director of SEARCH, Inc. SEARCH is a leading nationwide and global provider of cultural resources services to Commercial and Government customers in the Defense, Energy, Transportation, and Development markets. As a full-service company, SEARCH offers a multidisciplinary integration of our five divisions: Archaeology, Maritime Archaeology, Architectural History, History & Archives, and Museum Services. Since 1993, SEARCH has conducted over 2,500 projects across the United States and all of the US Territories, and internationally across the Americas, West Indies, Europe, Oceania, Asia, and Africa.
