About The Magazine ANTIQUES
Since its inception in 1922, The Magazine ANTIQUES has been America’s premier publication on the fine and decorative arts, architecture, preservation, and interior design. Each bimonthly issue includes regular columns on current exhibitions, personalities in the field, notes on collecting, book reviews, and more.
Meet the Team

DON SPARACIN
Publisher
After 15 years as an American art dealer and gallery director, Don joined ANTIQUES in September of 2011. Don brings a vast breadth of knowledge of the American paintings market to the publication—an important niche within the magazine’s editorial and advertising content. His goal is to help maintain the legacy of the century-old title and provide an important forum for dealers, museums, and luxury brands to promote their businesses. Don is a father of two girls, and an avid fan of the New York Metropolitans.

SAMMY DALATI
Senior Editor and Digital Media Producer
Sammy is senior editor at ANTIQUES and editor of the publication's podcast Curious Objects. A graduate of New York University’s Steinhardt School, Sammy has shown his own artwork around the world, and has helped shepherd that of emerging artists into the light of day as a member of the art collective No Home Gallery. Having come to ANTIQUES via the contemporary art world, Sammy has been surprised to learn what’s new isn’t always best.

SARAH BILOTTA
Digital Manager and Editorial Research Associate
Sarah oversees ANTIQUES's digital editorial output and serves as fact-checker for ANTIQUES. She also writes our popular Antique of the Day social media series. She holds a postgraduate qualification in Design History from the University of Oxford and comes to ANTIQUES from the museum world.

MARTIN MINERVA
Art Director
Martin has been with ANTIQUES for the past 20 years and has been the publication's art director for the last three. He grew up in Rockville Center, New York and now lives in Queens with his wife Debbie and their two kids.

ELEANOR GUSTAFSON
Consulting Editor
Eleanor, who started at ANTIQUES fresh out of college, stepped back from her full-time role as executive editor in 2017. As consulting editor, she continues to write our Endnotes page, while also serving as our institutional memory and making sure we don’t let our editorial standards slip. In her free time she enjoys the familiar fruits of retirement: traveling, spending time with her four children and their families, and playing tennis and bridge.

GLENN ADAMSON
Editor-at-large
Glenn is a curator, writer, and historian who works at the intersection of craft and contemporary art. Currently Senior Scholar at the Yale Center for British Art, he has previously been Director of the Museum of Arts and Design; Head of Research at the V&A; and Curator at the Chipstone Foundation in Milwaukee. Glenn has written multiple publications, including his most recent Fewer Better Things: The Hidden Wisdom of Objects, published by Bloomsbury in 2018.

ELIZABETH POCHODA
Advisory Editor
Betsy served as ANTIQUES’s editor for 8 years, only the fifth editor since the publication’s founding in 1922. As a longtime magazine professional, she has a keen interest in fine art, antiques, and design and holds a PhD in medieval and Renaissance literature from the University of Pennsylvania. She was also the arts editor of The Nation magazine for many years.

CHRISTINE HILDEBRAND
Digital Media and Editorial Assistant
Christine supports ANTIQUES's editorial and digital departments. In her youth, Christine was indirectly introduced to the world of antiques; her gran’s collection of egg coddlers and flocks of pie birds developed a hardened affinity toward objects of specificity. Today, Christine is a published writer and Renaissance woman, exercising a variety of recreational talents such as photographing street style and walking her two buff cocker spaniels. She refuses to endure the guilt of missing her local flea market come Sunday or breaking the arguably bad habit of stalking EstateSales.NET late into the evening.
