Funny you should ask.
My degree is in Art History. It's given depth to all the work I do (I'm a professional artist).
I'm also a restorationist (specializing in works on paper), and have written two books.
HOWEVER, the real reason I switched majors from Fine Art to Art History was the horror I felt the day I saw an art student roll a truck tire that had been drenched with yellow paint across a canvas and call it art. Right then, I knew I was in the wrong college.
