Stafford To Lead Milwaukee Public

Michael Stafford has been named the new head of the Milwaukee Public Museum. Stafford has been the chief of a Michigan science museum, where he oversaw a $31 million renovation project. The hope in Milwaukee is that Stafford will be able to raise the museum’s local profile, and by extension, improve its fundraising abilities. The museum’s last president, Roger Bowen, resigned after only 15 months on the job.
