Good news! Thanks Mr. Bunch (age 73)! Time for retirement?
I suspect, he too was a DEI choice (first black American etc.).
His professional career is not impressive at all. Apparently his research focus was almost exclusively the history of black Americans. He published very few publications.
One of his publications of 2019 is titled "Bunch, Lonnie G. (2019). A Fool's Errand: Creating the National Museum of African American History and Culture in the age of Bush, Obama, and Trump. Washington, DC: Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press. " There is certainly some irony here.
"Product description: Founding Director Lonnie Bunch's deeply personal tale of the triumphs and challenges of bringing the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture to life. His story is by turns inspiring, funny, frustrating, quixotic, bittersweet, and above all, a compelling read."
