In what is certainly the grandest coincidence of my life, my friend and roommate has informed me that my New York City address was the former apartment of Edith Gregor Halpert, located above the Downtown Gallery, which she operated here from 1926-1940. Edith made history by championing American artists Stuart Davis, Charles Sheeler, and Jacob Lawrence among many others, and is chronicled in the terrific book
The Girl With The Gallery by Lindsay Pollock. If only these walls could talk.
