Dr Noah Charney is the internationally best-selling author of more than twenty books, translated into fourteen languages, including The Collector of Lives: Giorgio Vasari and the Invention of Art, which was nominated for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize in Biography, and Museum of Lost Art, which was the finalist for the 2018 Digital Book World Award. A 2006 New York Times Magazine article, written when he was just 26, suggested that he had founded the field of the academic study of art crime. From that point forward, he has been considered the leading authority on the history of art crime. He is a professor of art history specializing in art crime, and has taught for Yale University, Brown University, American University of Rome and University of Ljubljana. He is founder of ARCA, the Association for Research into Crimes against Art, a ground-breaking research group (www.artcrimeresearch.org) and teaches on their annual summer-long Postgraduate Program in Art Crime and Cultural Heritage Protection. He writes often for dozens of major magazines and newspapers, including The Guardian, the Washington Post, the Observer and The Art Newspaper. He has recently fronted an influencer campaign for Samsung, and in 2022 he presented a BBC Radio 4 documentary, "China’s Stolen Treaures." He writes scripts for TED, the videos of which have been viewed millions of times. He films courses for The Teaching Company’s Great Courses/Wondrium and teaches online courses for Atlas Obscura and other venues. He lives in Slovenia with his wife, children and their hairless dog, Hubert van Eyck (believe it or not). Learn more at www.noahcharney.com.
