Enid Schildkrout is Curator for African Ethnology in the Division of Anthropology at the American Museum of Natural History; she is also an Adjunct Professor at Columbia University and at the City University of New York. She has studied the fostering of children in urban Ghana and written extensively on children's work and women's work among Muslims in Kano, northern Nigeria. She has also curated museum exhibits and published books and articles about African art and material culture. In recent years, Enid Schildkrout has returned to the study of children, working with Ghanaian immigrants, who come from families she knew in Ghana in the 1960s. She is especially interested in how these children learn about Africa and how they think about their identity in New York City
