An Insider’s View Into the Crime of the Century

MARCH 29TH | 6:30PM – 8:00PM

On March 18, 1989, the biggest property crime in United States History took place steps away from the Harvard Club of Boston — the theft of 13 works of art from the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum.

The crime has been the subject of books, Boston Globe stories, and a Netflix documentary. But one man is at the center of it all — Anthony Amore, the director of security for the Gardner. Hired after the theft, Amore has spent more than 15 years investigating the theft, seeking to bring the thieves to justice, but, more critically, return these priceless works of art to the public.

This isn’t the first time Anthony Amore has been at the center of a high profile case. He was instrumental in the reorganization and regionalization of national homeland security efforts postSeptember 11th and was the agency’s lead agent responding to the attempted terrorist attack by Richard Reid, the so-called “Shoe Bomber” in December 2001.

Amore has appeared on the BBC, NBC, NPR, CNN, Fox and others. But on March 29th, he’ll be appearing exclusively at the Harvard Club of Boston for a fireside chat. He will share his thoughts on the theft and investigation at the Gardner Museum as well as his insights on a career-long spent as an art theft expert, investigator, and security practitioner.
