Gain a sense of style

By Sarah Hutchins · Wednesday, Oct. 31,2007 11:09 p.m.

Part of assistant professor of costume design Linda Pisano’s research material is “Harris’s List of Covent Garden Ladies: Sex in the City in Georgian Britain.” The risqué, 160-page book by Hallie Rubenhold is a guide to picking up prostitutes in the 18th century. For Pisano, however, it is more than a quirky handbook; the commentary and annotated features are important resources.

Le Dernier Cri

By Claire Burke · Tuesday, Oct. 30,2007 10:07 p.m.

I am one of those people who holds onto everything. Notes from past classes, old magazines, trinkets from childhood and old clothing fill up my room and my closet. It is this hoarding of old clothing that is puzzling me. Why do I keep clothes that I will never wear again? Wouldn’t it be better to donate them to someone who needs them more or simply throw them out?

Presidential expert writes book highlighting White House cuisine

By Hillel Italie · Sunday, Oct. 28,2007 8:14 p.m.

NEW YORK – Barry H. Landau, a presidential collector and connoisseur, is the kind of guy one may not notice in the pictures with celebrities. He is 59 and has been in the company of presidents for nearly 50 years. He is tall and bearded, with a home full of history and a head crammed with names, like boxes in an overstuffed closet ready to tumble out.
