Remembering Bradbury Director John Rhoades
John Rhoades, who led the Bradbury Science Museum for 16 years, recently passed away in Santa Fe. A native New Yorker who made his home in New Mexico, Rhoades joined the Laboratory as the Bradbury’s museum exhibits section leader, then rose to deputy group leader. In 1990, Rhoades became the Bradbury’s director.
