Welcome to HMSC Connects! where we go behind the scenes of four Harvard museums to explore the connections between us, our big, beautiful world, and even what lies beyond. For this week’s episode host Jennifer Berglund is speaking with Peter Der Manuelian, a professor of Egyptology and the Director of the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East. Peter recently published a book called "Walking Among Pharaohs: George Reisner and the Dawn of Modern Egyptology," a 15-year project that documents the work and life of George Reisner, a Harvard Egyptologist who worked in Egypt during Egyptology's golden age, the era in which Tutankhamun's tomb was discovered.
