Untitled[edit]

I have a delightful article in my files from the New York Times dated September 16, 1928 on Gifford Pinchot and Wassmann's paternal grandmother, Gladys. It appears she threw an ice cream social on behalf of the Governor for 1000 guests. It's a 'paid' article, though, so I don't know how it would link. Tschüss. --Maimeleipzig (talk) 12:32, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wassmann's appeal[edit]

I'm surprised the notability of Jeff Wassmann as an artist would even arise. I write exclusively on contemporary art and Wassmann has become quite a cult figure among younger artists in recent years, a real "artist's artist." He has not exhibited work in recent years due to several health problems (see article), so I can understand his Google search results will have dropped, and may continue to drop, but I would hope Wikipedia remains a source of articles of historical significance, rather than a measure of the most recent Google traffic results.
