Find out how to sell your unwanted stuff for top dollar. Dr. Lori will tell you what people are really paying for your antiques and collectibles. She will pull no punches as she evaluates your stuff and makes you laugh. “I’ll break some hearts, I’ll make some millionaires. We’ll laugh and learn along the way”, says Dr. Lori.
About Dr. Lori
Dr. Lori always had a love of history thru objects. The youngest of three daughters, Dr. Lori was affectionately known in her family as her father’s “son”. As a youngster, she enjoyed going fishing with her Dad, watching baseball games, and hunting flea markets and yard sales for antiques that would end up in her #1 favorite spot--her Dad’s garage. Living through the Great Depression and World War II, Dr. Lori’s parents instilled their belief in education and their appreciation for the value of old objects. They encouraged Dr. Lori to follow her interests in the field. Thus, she earned several academic degrees in history including the Ph.D. from Penn State University.
After years teaching in university classrooms and working as a museum director, Dr. Lori was inspired to start appraising antiques after an unexpected encounter with a 75-year-old woman. “This woman told me her story. She had recently sold an historic George Washington document for $50 that was worth $50,000! She said she needed the $50 to pay her electric bill. When I met her, I thought, this woman could be my mother—anyone could make that mistake.”
Dr. Lori says, “That woman’s mistake inspired me to share my education and expertise. So, I do just that presenting over 100 antique appraisal shows and appraising 20,000 objects that audiences bring me to review every year. I have been featured on NBC’s The Tonight Show, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and Anderson Cooper’s talk show for my straightforward and funny approach to antiques, too.”
