SUMMARY:Black Holes in Globular Clusters\, Astronomy Colloquium\, Laur
 a Chomiuk\, Michigan State University
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of stellar-mass black holes are expected to form 
 in<br>
\nthe early lifetime of a typical globular star cluster\, but t
 he fate of these black holes remains uncertain. Are they promptly ejec
 ted from their parent clusters\, or are some retained to form close bi
 naries? The existence of black holes in globular clusters would have b
 road implications for the demography of black holes\, the evolution of
  globular clusters\, and gravitational wave sources. I will discuss th
 e initial results and implications of our survey using deep radio cont
 inuum and X-ray data to search for stellar and intermediate-mass black
  holes in Milky Way globular clusters. I will also discuss prospects f
 or future black-hole hunting with the next generation Very Large Array
  (ngVLA).<br>
