RUSTY TAGLIARENI AND CHRISTINA MATHEWS have been documenting abandoned historical properties throughout the United States for well over a decade. In 2009, they launched their website, www.AntiquityEchoes.com, dedicated to archiving the locations they've filmed and generating public awareness. Rusty and Christina are award-winning best-selling authors, with work featured on many media outlets such as 60 Minutes and The New York Times. Prior to its dissolution, Rusty and Christina were heavily involved with the Preserve Greystone movement, a grassroots organization founded to raise awareness and seek preservation of the disused Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital in Parsippany, New Jersey. They are trustees of PreservationWorks, a national nonprofit which advocated for the preservation and adaptive reuse of our country's last remaining Kirkbride-plan psychiatric institutions.
