John Silverstein is a former public art gallery curator and director, university art history instructor, produced screenwriter, owner of a vintage props rental business called Hot Property, and life-long collector whose interests have ranged from Underground comix, to Bauhaus applied arts, to historic and modern photography, to his present and ongoing involvement with African American objects and art.

Sandra Palomino, Director, Historical Manuscripts, has more than twenty years of experience working with historical manuscripts, autographs, and rare books both via private treaty sales and auction. She joined Heritage in 2006 and during her tenure has brought to market such important collectibles as the last paragraph of Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address and Francis Crick’s Nobel Medal and diploma. She has also had the honor of working with the papers of Benjamin Harrison (a large archive that descended through the family of his second wife that was placed with an institution), and the papers of Maude Ballou, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s first secretary. Her course of study at Yale focused on 18th and 19th Century American History. Her professional experience also includes direct marketing and public relations with such noted companies as Rapp Collins and Donnelly Marketing.
