About
With an interdisciplinary background in history and theatre, Chloe works laterally across the collection, seeking out material that might reveal insights about the boundaries of belonging in modern Britain. Primarily working with 20th century material, Chloe is most interested in people at the centre of records and what their experiences might tell us about how we ‘make home’ today.
Part of the Modern Britain team, Chloe prioritises community-heritage work and creating opportunities for encounter with historic material.
