Iowa State Representative

Liz Crooks has served as the director of the University of Iowa Pentacrest Museums since 2018. Liz holds an MA in Museum Studies and a Graduate Certificate in Book Arts. Born & raised in Iowa City, Crooks developed a passion for museums while visiting the museums she now oversees. She serves on numerous campus advisory committees, including the Museum Studies Certificate Program.

From Liz:

“…AAMG has been a wonderful resource for us, providing a community of academic museums/galleries that ‘gets us’ in a way that {other organizations} don’t. {The listserv} digest is the first email I read every morning!”

Thank you Liz! We are so excited to have you as our new Iowa State Representative!
