Abstract
Many museums around the world have women as directors. How have they got to ‘the top’? What do they do and how do they act once there? Do they have some specifically ‘feminine’ way of running their museum? Or do they ‘out‐man’ the males around them? In this article portraits of three Soviet women museum directors suggest that these may not be the only questions that need to be asked. The author has worked at the Pushkin Fine Arts Museum (Moscow) and as Secretary‐General of the Soviet National Committee of ICOM. Since 1982 she has been Editor of the Russian edition of Museum.
