To the Editor:

Re “Taking On the Boys’ Club at the Art Museum” (Op-Ed, Oct. 19):

While there is certainly cause for optimism, as Sonnet Stanfill states in her article, women still have a long road ahead of them to gain gender parity in the museum world.

One can only hope that new studies showing that companies are more productive with a balance of men and women at the helm will enliven the debate and spur needed change in museum leadership.
