I'm happy to report that after reading another discussion, I went into System Preferences, Security and Privacy, and allowed Lightroom Classic to access my files and folders. From there I was able to export from Lightroom once again to my desktop on my hard drive. PTL!

More information is needed. Exactly what happens when you try to export? Any error message? Are you exporting to internal or external drive? 

The first thing to check on a Mac is the permissions for the drive to which you are attempting the export. Have you tried resetting the LrC preferences?
