DESCRIPTION:Former FBI Special Agent and art crime expert Robert Wittman is back by popular demand with an all-new lecture\, “The Three F’s of Art Crime: Frauds\, Forgeries and Fakes\,” on Thursday\, April 10\, at 6:30 p.m. in the McFaddin-Ward House Visitor Center Lecture Hall (located at 1906 Calder Avenue in Beaumont). \nOne of the most famous art detectives in the world\, Wittman will share thrilling stories from his FBI investigations into some of the largest and most captivating fraud cases in the art and collectible world and offer invaluable insights and practical tips on sophisticated fraudster protection. \nAfter joining the FBI as a Special Agent in 1988\, Wittman received specialized training in art\, antiques\, jewelry and gem identification\, enabling him to serve as the FBI’s investigative expert involving cultural property crime. During his 20-year FBI career\, Wittman recovered more than $300 million worth of stolen art and cultural property. He has represented the United States throughout the world\, conducting investigations and instructing international police and museums in recovery and use of high asset value security techniques. \nIn 2010\, Wittman penned his New York Times bestselling memoir PRICELESS: How I Went Undercover to Rescue the World’s Stolen Treasures. \nFor those unable to attend\, the full lecture will also be available for viewing on the museum’s YouTube Channel (youtube.com/@mcfaddinwardhouse) and website (mcfaddin-ward.org/about/videos) after the event. \nThis program is supported by Humanities Texas\, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
