Jen Vos

Jen Vos is a museum professional-turned archivist with a passion for storytelling and digital media. After a childhood spent out of state, she returned to the city of her birth to attend Calvin University earning a bachelor’s degree in history. She spent the next few years bouncing between the Grand Rapids Public Museum and the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum before enrolling in the Cooperstown Graduate Program, where she earned a master’s degree in museum studies. Now she serves as the assistant archivist and digitization specialist for Heritage Hall at Calvin University.

In her spare time, Jen co-hosts a podcast, The Ribbon Book Club. The podcast is dedicated to revisiting the historical fiction series, Dear America, that inspired her love of history. Her interests include reading historical diaries and letters and generally snooping through history. Oh, and she loves her three-legged cat, Artemis.
