Theriaut's President Stuart Holbrook chats with Florence Theriault in this deeply personal and candid look at her 55 year career in auctions, dolls and collecting. Spanning the early 1970’s until today this three-part Podcast allows Florence to recount with humor and sentiment the rise of Theriault’s from its humble beginnings along with the stories, characters and adventures that she's experienced along the way. While a beloved figure in the world of dolls, we see a human side of Florence that few have come to know, especially a new generation of collectors who may only know her through her popular YouTube video channel. Part Two takes us through the growth of Theriault’s in the 1980’s as Florence Theriault navigated the firm from the “old world" of the doll market into the new age of media and information. This led to her transformation into collaborating on research projects during the 1990’s that worked to uncover much of today’s evolution of knowledge which she discusses in great detail.
