BIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT

Fonda Ghiardi Thomsen was a textile conservator. Most noted for her work on flags, she also conserved quilts, samplers, military uniforms, and civilian clothing, most notably the suit worn by Abraham Lincoln the night he was assassinated. She was interested in solving the problems associated with exhibiting large textiles. She became the director of Textile Preservation Associates in Keedysville, Maryland, in 1987.

Ms. Ghiardi (the name she uses in retirement) earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Pennsylvania State University and worked in biochemical and medical research for three years. She then took art and museum studies classes at the Corcoran School of Art and at George Washington University. She earned a Master of Fine Arts degree at Maryland Institute College of Art. Ms. Thomsen began working as a conservator in 1968, first at the Smithsonian Institution and then at the National Park Service. After studying textile conservation at the Abegg-Stiftung Museum in Berne, Switzerland, she focused her work on historic textiles and modern fiber art. She is a Fellow of the American Institute for Conservation (AIC).

SCOPE AND CONTENT

The bulk of the collection consists of treatment files from Textile Preservation Associates (TPA), including treatment proposals; analyses of the items to be conserved; reports of work done; photographs of items before, during, and after treatment; and samples of threads and fabrics. Often, drawings showing details of construction of the items are included; as well, there is a cloth pattern for the suit of clothes worn by Abraham Lincoln the night he was assassinated. (The clothes were conserved for the Ford’s Theater National Historic Site.) Sometimes, there is a history of the item being conserved or information about the person or military unit who made or used the item. Most of the photographs are slides or are on CDs. TPA conserved a large number of flags, plus quilts, uniforms, samplers, and civilian clothing, for a wide variety of museums, historical societies, government agencies, and private individuals.

The collection also includes treatment reports completed while Ms. Thomsen worked for the National Park Service, reports of surveys and conservation assessments done for various collections, some correspondence, papers written by Ms. Thomsen, and papers presented at meetings sponsored by the Harpers Ferry Regional Textile Group, an organization of textile conservators working in and around Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. While Ms. Thomsen worked for the National Park Service, she researched the flags conserved by Katherine Fowler Richey and her mother Amelia Fowler, who worked in the first half of the 20^th century. A group of slides includes images of items that Ms. Thomsen worked on while she was with the National Park Service as well as slides taken by Louise Cooley, another flag conservator. The collection also includes two examples of mounts for textiles.

ORGANIZATION

The files are in five series:

I. Private client treatment files;

II. Institutional client treatment files;

III. Smithsonian Institution and National Park Service (NPS) files; Katherine Fowler Richey project

IV. Correspondence; surveys; conservation assessment programs; papers; books; mounting samples; and slides; and

V. Harpers Ferry Regional Textile Group publications and tapes.

Within each series, the files are in alphabetical order. For clients in Series I and II with more than one file, the files are then arranged in numerical order by Textile Preservation Associates (TPA) file number. Treatment reports which Ms. Thomsen completed while she was an employee of the NPS are in Series III, while treatment reports done by TPA as an outside contractor for the NPS are in Series II.
