Introduction | My name is Jon. I live in Indianapolis with my wife, son, dog and two cats. Most people would think my job seems relatively boring - I produce antique shows - 17 a year in fact, in Tennessee, Ohio and Connecticut. When not producing shows, I attend antiques shows - 25 to 40 a year - Texas, Michigan, Massachusetts, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, New York, Pennsylvania. While not producing or attending shows, I spend about 80 hours a month on the phone talking to dealers, customers and other show producers about antique shows. My wife thinks I might have a problem - but that might be a topic for another blog. This blog will be about the behind the scenes perspective of the show business. Maybe I might be able to pass along some useful info about one of our events or other shows of interest. As I truly don't feel that I possess any spectacular insight, I will be inviting some people along to share their views and experiences- maybe a few antique dealers, customers and anyone else who might be more interesting than myself.(A long list assuredly) |
Interests | When not working, my loves include the Indianapolis Colts (sore subject recently), travel and spending time away from my cell phone and computer. |
