Peggy McDonald, Research Associate

Peggy McDonald just returned to Reno after living in California and Washington. She graduated from U.C. Berkeley with a bachelor's degree in dramatic art in 1982, and in 2005 she completed a museum studies program with the University of Washington extension program. After many years of working in the live theatres of the Bay Area and Seattle as a set designer, she is happily combining her love of history and performance art with her interest in oral history. Her first project is interviewing her father, Robert L. McDonald. She also volunteers at the Nevada Museum of Art.
