Chairman of the Board Margot Bogert announces the election of a new Trustee, Sidney R. Knafel. Bogert comments, “The Trustees of The Frick Collection, Director Ian Wardropper, and I welcome Sidney Knafel to the Board. We have come to know him as a major supporter of the institution and are thrilled to have him take this next step by becoming a Trustee. We will benefit greatly from his experience in the business world, where he has led, and in some cases also founded, a diverse group of companies involved in finance, communications, and biotechnology. His commitment to cultural and educational institutions is impressive, having given generously of his time and resources to a range of non-profit organizations over the course of many years.”
