In 1986, Ms D'Amario joined the staff at the Salem Witch Museum after thirteen years of teaching American Literature at Masconomet Regional High School in Boxford, Massachusetts. As Director of Education she has been involved in all aspects of program development from writing the educational material for the museum to giving television interviews about this very popular tourist attraction. Participating in local and national conferences, serving on community and school boards on the North Shore and making presentations to historical societies and business groups are all part of her very demanding schedule. Her goal in all of these activities is to impart accurate information about the Salem Witch Trials.

Alison received her BA, magna cum laude, from Smith College. She has appeared on numerous television programs including PBS Secrets of the Dead, The Witches' Curse, the History Channel, and the Discovery Channel. She has authored magazine articles as well as several educational packets and information booklets on witchcraft and in particular, the Salem Witch Trials. She currently is writing a book on Lowell to be published by Commonwealth Editions.
