Connecticut Landmarks is pleased to announce that our Board of Trustees voted unanimously to appoint Robert Brock as our new Executive Director. He has been serving as Interim Executive Director since April, though he joined Connecticut Landmarks as Deputy Director in 2019. Mr. Brock came to Connecticut Landmarks from St. Louis, where he was Director of Visitor Experience at the Missouri Historical Society, which saw over 500,000 visitors a year under his leadership. A Hartford resident, he holds a B.A. in Journalism from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and a M.S. in Public Policy from the University of Massachusetts Boston.

“Bob has done a great job leading the organization as interim Executive Director during a time of transition and at our busiest time of the year,” remarked Deborah Ullman, Chair of the Board of Trustees. “His broad professional experience and commitment to historic preservation makes him uniquely suited to this role. As we wrap up a busy fall of site-based programs, we look forward to several preservation projects and planning for another season of engaging programs.”

Join us in congratulating Bob, and make sure to say hello when you see him at one of our fall programs! If you have any questions or would like to schedule a meeting, email robert.brock@ctlandmarks.org
