Career

Sadao began her career in museums as a curatorial intern at the Whitney Museum of American Art.[2] At the Whitney museum, she worked with curator, Thelma Golden.[8]

Sadao was the executive director of Visual AIDS in New York City for ten years, from 2002 through 2012.[9] During her time at Visual AIDS, she increased outreach and expanded available resources surrounding HIV/AIDS to encourage discussion and support of HIV+ artists.

University of Pennsylvania President Amy Gutmann and Provost Vincent Price announced her appointment to a directorship named for Daniel W. Dietrich II, honoring his substantial financial gift in 2005. In 2015, he also gave a US$10 million endowment to the university[11] in support of its curatorial program and to help bring artists to Philadelphia.[12] Describing her as "a leader of unparalleled energy and vision", Gutmann commented, "She has an especially strong commitment to forging collaborations across a wide range of diverse communities and placing art at the center of dialogue about the most significant intellectual, political, and social issues of the contemporary world."[13] Price said, "I have been particularly impressed by her understanding of the role of art in a research university – and in catalyzing intellectual and interdisciplinary inquiry in general – as well as by the knowledge she brings of Penn and Philadelphia."[13]

She was elected to the board of the Pennsylvania Humanities Council in 2015.[14]
