The directors of international fine arts auctioneers Bonhams are pleased to announce the appointment of Beth Feely to the position of Director of the firm’s Trusts & Estates Department in New York. In her new position Ms. Feely will act as an advisor and liaison between Trust & Estates officers including banks and law firms and Bonhams’ specialists, Business Development teams and members of the firm’s international clientele.

Ms. Feely’s knowledge of the art world, as well as her extensive background in banking and event planning, make her an incomparable candidate for the position.
