Post by: richbass939 on April 19, 2015, 10:12:02 AM

This past week on Jeopardy one clue was about a statue in New York's Riverside Park of: (the Jeopardy answer = Eleanor Roosevelt).  The statue was made by Penelope Jencks who is the mother of the Alembic club's very own Edwin Hurwitz.

I guess I could have put in a couple of links to her and her works.  A Google search will give a lot more info about her.
