In 2008 I curtalied my "full time" professional activities (and by extension, retired my active memberships with the two prestigious professional societies:  the Appraisers Association of America, and the American Society of Appraisers)

At this time (2010), however, having returned to work part time, I am again honoured to be recognized as second to none among the best independent-fee Consultants and Valuators of objets d'Art, Antiques, and other High-Value Collectibles.
