Russel Wright / Klise Modern - Collecting Tiki

I went to a Russel Wright exhibit at the Cooper-Hewitt Design Museum in NYC in 2001 (or 2002?). It was amazing! A real treat. Dinnerware, silverware, furniture, pottery, textiles, lighting...he did it all. He was one of the first to bring modern design to the general public. I, like a lot of other folks hear, love mid-century design and could probably go on and on, but I won't bore you. Did I ever tell you about the time I flew from LA to New York, just because they had re-opened the old Saarinen TWA Terminal for an exhibit and when I got there the exhibit had closed early? FUCK!
