SALEM, MASS.- The Peabody Essex Museum appointed Steven Mallory as its Manager of Historic Structures and Landscapes. PEM’s architecture collection, which preserves 22 noted historic structures -- four of which are National Historic Landmarks and six of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places -- is the largest of any American art museum. This new position will ensure that PEM’s architecture collection and its associated grounds are cared for at the highest standard and that the public will be able to experience them in exciting and innovative, new ways.

In his capacity as Lead Architectural Conservator and Principal Investigator at Groundroot Preservation Group, LLC, Mallory has spent the last six years working directly with PEM’s architecture collection, providing detailed analysis of more than a dozen of the museum’s historic properties and developing preservation and long term planning recommendations.

“Steven brings an unmatched set of theoretical and practical skills to his role at PEM,” says Robert Monk, PEM’s Director of Facilities. “In addition to being a noted scholar, lecturer and architectural conservator, Steven is trained in restoration carpentry, fine woodworking and landscaping. Perhaps his greatest asset, however, is his boundless enthusiasm and contagious passion for historic structures.”

Prior to working at Groundroot Preservation Group, Mallory was the Manager of Preservation at George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate, Museum and Gardens, where he oversaw restoration and conservation planning efforts, managed a team of contractors and artisans, and undertook hands-on restoration and conservation projects. In addition, he helped lead public outreach, donor cultivation and ambassadorship efforts.

“I am thrilled to join the Peabody Essex Museum, an institution where the quality of the architectural history is matched only by the innovative culture and creative mindset of its staff,” says Mallory. “The artistic and interpretative possibilities of PEM’s campus are myriad. I look forward to unlocking new narratives and experiences that bridge the past and the present and ignite our collective imagination.“

Mallory has a MS in Historic Preservation with a concentration in Architectural Conservation Science from the University of Vermont and a BS in Architectural History with a concentration in American Architecture from Skidmore College.
