Catching up with our President Emeritus Peter Stanford

摘要

Many of you inquire after Peter Stanford, who was at the helm here some 31 years. We're overdue for an update. Peter has had some major health problems this past year and is recovering from a serious session in the hospital as a start-off to 2010. Now regaining his vigor, he and his wife Norma are happily at work finishing their book on the founding years of the South Street Seaport Museum. A Venture in South Street tells how New Yorkers launched thernSeaport Museum in a battle against the odds, with Peter as its first president. The Seaport Museum has just made him an honorary trustee.
