glass house tour, september 2007

Philip Johnson gave his famous “glass house” estate in New Canaan, Connecticut to the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The estate is now open for tours, and although tour availability is very limited through 2009, it is well worth the wait.

medical illustration contributions to wikimedia commons

During the 1990s I and my Yale colleagues Carl Jaffe, Phill Simon, Sean Jackson and Kimberly Pasko collaborated with various Yale faculty as the Yale Center for Advanced Instructional Media.

I have contributed high-resolution versions of the base anatomic artwork to the Wikimedia Commons, the media companion to Wikipedia.
