Alex Nyerges
Yesterday NPR had a really cool segment on Virginia Museum of Fine Arts' director Alex Nyerges where he managed to weave together a really interesting segment on the museum, a ghost, a Pollock, generous donors and a really strong path forward.
Details here.
I'll be visiting VMFA soon as I'll be in Richmond for a few days later this month and plan to write on the museum and Richmond galleries.

Lenny - I'm certain you will find that Alex is a true gentleman and a great host. I have not found another museum director with his enthusiasm for the arts and clear vision of his mission. You'll have a facsinating visit in Richmond.

Rob, you are very kind...
Lenny, please let us know when you are in Richmond...it would be wonderful to meet - and we could give you a complete behind-the scenes tour, hard hats and all, of our growing campus... Hope to see you.

Hi, Rob. Glad you liked our visionary leader! Please let me know if you need anything in preparation for your visit. We have a very good media room at www.vmfa.mediaroom.state.va.us. Scheduling well in advance will enable Alex's office to provide that behind-the-scenes tour, which will knock your socks off! His assistant is candy.banks@vmfa.museum.
And please let me know if I can be of any assistance as well.
