Eileen Reilly

Very messy desk.

Eileen Reilly, museum technician,
Toronto, Canada

I work with other mountmakers (we make artifacts stand on their own when they can't) for the new galleries at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto. Our space is the former dinosaur area so not everyone can say they are surrounded by the "land before time" theme when they go to work. Many of the remains of the old dioramas (see trailing greenery) and murals are still around us. Forgive the messy desk there but I was hardly near my desk when that picture was taken so it really didn't have to be clear. I'm more tidy at home where I have the basement (not great for light) and the 2nd bedroom/den for the computers.
