Ronnie is the collections manager of a museum in Sonoma Valley, California. He says he's low key obsessed with Jack London and visited his home on his 30th birthday just for funzies. Ronnie has been working as a museologist since 2007 but only recently started to think about what it would be like to work at a museum full-time.
Museums! Mummies! Paintings! Hot dogs! Alie sits down with her dear internet friend and museologist Ronnie Cline, who manages 30,000 artifacts over 22 California State Park Museums. Get the hot gossip about behind-the-scenes museum life, vintage ghosts, following your dreams, changing the tone of history and the time Alie ruined a 16th Century Dutch portrait. Also: why Jack London is your new dead celebrity crush.
