Parish Hadley Sixty Years of American Design

Yesterday I had a gentleman come into my store, as he was looking
around he noticed that I had the book "Parish Hadley Sixty Years of
American Design". He said he had worked for Sister Parish. I only know
this man as Bill, no last name. How did a Harvard graduate, A New York,
architect, who worked for Sister Parish, end up in Staunton wondering the
streets and only known as Bill/ He sat down in my store and flipped thru
the book looking for the apartment he design for her and we talked about
decorating. He also worked for David Easton when he was decorating for
the now dethroned Patricia Kluge. Bill promised to bring me pictures of
his work in his past life. Amazing, I am in awe!
