Nancy Brian, Artifact Collections Manager, was born in the Midwest and grew up on the East Coast.  Marriage brought her  to Broken Arrow, where she has lived half her life and raised a son. Originally in a PhD program in clinical psychology, she changed course and went after her life-long interests in libraries and museums. Nancy's last two placements have been at the Tulsa Air and Space Museum and the Military History Center, and she is now at home at the Museum Broken Arrow. With equal engagement, Nancy plays flute, recorder, and pennywhistle, and performs in a Renaissance early music ensemble and Irish group. Volunteer work has always been a family tradition to which she is faithful. Play time includes tennis, reading, and dog-petting. If there is a boat or plane nearby, she will freely crew.
