Behind the Scenes

Our new exhibition on the Silk Road will be opening in the next week and all things professional are focused on the launch and promotion of this show. And on Friday a group of employee children were allowed access to the exhibition in return for the right to photograph them. I see now that the younger the child the more interest the photographer has in shooting them. So, kate at the ripe old age of 13 is no longer a favored model for either our in-house photog or for a New York Times photog who was also there working. We went on for a family dinner in the nabe and had a great time. Saturday was all about soccer for kate and Arnie and I went off to a conference and then we all hooked up again for dinner with friends.

Sunday was a trip to Chinatown to meet two sisters from New Jersey and to have a first lunch with them as part of a big sister-little sister event. And last night we watched Fame which was a mixed bag. Incredibly foul language which always make Kate freeze and a sampling of everything from sex to drugs and rock n roll. The question was whether or not this was TMI for kate. Hoowever I thought that every deviant act had a touch consequence so for me it wasn't optimum but ok.
