“Several large and important artifacts added to the Liberace Museum Collection were acquired from the Hammargren collection in recent years,” Says Liberace Foundation Chairman Jonathan Warren, “Ricci’s father-in-law knew Liberace and members of his family quite well. Our new board member’s connections, experience and skill set will be instrumental in the upcoming projects of the Foundation, as will, of course, his immutable style!”
