MIAMI – Hindman has opened a new Miami office, led by Elizabeth Rader, PhD, director of business development, trusts, estates & private clients. With more than a decade of establishing a strong presence in Florida, this expansion now gives Hindman representation in three cities in Florida and 16 cities across the United States.

With additional locations in Palm Beach and Naples, the opening of Hindman Miami underscores the firm’s presence throughout the state. This new regional representation will enhance Hindman’s dedication to providing exceptional service to clients in multiple locations and focuses on the foundation of the auction market: core collectible property at a range of estimates. Located at 275 Alhambra Circle in the historic Coral Gables neighborhood, Hindman Miami is ideally located in a prominent location near important galleries, financial institutions and businesses.

Rader will oversee the Miami office, liaising with Hindman’s Palm Beach saleroom as well as its four additional salerooms throughout the United States. As the former head of Hindman’s Naples office, Rader brings extensive experience in developing relationships with private collectors, financial institutions, trust and estate firms, insurers and museums in Florida.

She has handled several prominent Florida estate collections, such as the estate of Leslie “Mitzi” S. Magin and the collection of Robert and Carolyn Springborn. Prior to joining Hindman, she worked for the London-based Art Loss Register as its development director for the Americas. Responsible for managing clients in the American, Canadian and Latin American markets, Rader executed strategies to develop relationships with private collectors and the trade to include dealers, appraisers, museums and art fair organizers at TEFAF and Art Basel Miami. Rader received her PhD in the history of art and theory from the University of Essex in 2012, with a concentration on the art and imagery of Colonial Latin America and Habsburg Spain. Rader is bilingual in Spanish and English.

“We have seen tremendous growth in Florida since we first entered the market, and we are thrilled to be expanding into a city that is so important both in terms of culture and business,” said Chief Executive Officer Alyssa D. Quinlan. “I’m delighted that Elizabeth, someone who has already exhibited great leadership in Hindman’s growth, will be overseeing this next step for the firm.”

Business Development Manager Allison Durian will take Rader’s former position leading the Naples office.
