The Morgan Library & Museum for New York Cottages & Gardens



For the "Divine Design" column for the March issue of New York Cottages & Gardens magazine, I was happy to write about The Morgan Library & Museum, which is a favorite spot of mine and a treasure of New York. For the story, Christine Nelson, the Library curator, took me through the building on a private tour, which was such a treat and so interesting. Check out the March issue and learn about this beautiful museum, which Mr. J. P. Morgan built at the turn of the last century to house his own personal book collection.

"JPMorgan's Library wrote the book on the gilded age" -- perfect headline, Bart. Your article made me want to attend.
Wish I could.

No doubt you write at home even under normal circumstances, and of course, you have a partner so you're not alone but I wondered what you're finding to do when not writing or reading.

Hi Gail, Yes working at home and staying in place during this challenging time. Try to get out and exercise, run or bike. More meditation. We're cooking dinners. I am reading "Great Expectations" which is wonderful! Hope you and yours are safe and sound during this danger --
All the best, Bart
