Dr. Esser has lived in Peru and Mexico, has published books and articles in Mexico and in the United States. She has presented many professional papers written extensively on ethnographically ancient, contemporary, and personal adornment. Dr. Esser is especially interested in the art of the ingenious peoples who occupied the Americas long before the arrival of Europeans.
