The Office of Visitor Services and Volunteer Management recently worked with WAMU 88.5, American University Radio, to develop a series of radio segments about community members who work and volunteer in front-line positions at museums across the DMV.

Among the four featured interviewees are two amazing Smithsonian volunteers, NASM Docent Mary Dominiak, and OVS Call Center volunteer Donna DeCorleto. You can listen to their stories using the links below!
