Dr. Barbara Thompson is the Phyllis Wattis Curator for the Arts of Africa and the Americas for the Cantor Arts Center. She oversses the collection of African, precolombian, and Native American Art. Prior to her arrival at Stanford, Dr. Thompson was with the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. She organized ten exhibitions at the Hood, including "Black Womanhood: Icons, Images, and ideologies of the African Body."
Dr. Thompson kindly and generously brought a wonderful collection of music from around the world which contains references to Vodou and Mami Wata, a deity which has been worshipped over many centuries and who is the center of an exhibition at Cantor Arts on the Stanford Campus.
