Ginnie
I'm an antique dealer, which basically means I'm a peddler. I love this business, the hunting perpetually for a great 'find', the chatting with all kinds of people, the selling, ( which to me, is sharing the joy of the 'find') and of course the profit (which assumes I didn't make a stupid purchase so there is one). I got the "Antiques Roadshow" onto American T.V. Not alone of course. That was a biggie, but I hope there will be more feathers to come. I work with my dear friends Karen Augusta and her husband Bob Ross at their auction house (hence the blog) and I also work on this blog with my life long best friend Gillian Farrell. I sell on Ebay as well. And very most importantly, I got to be the mother of my precious daughter April.
