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.

Wow, who knew? Thanks for the heads up!

PS. She's finishing up a trilogy of music related sculptures of Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein, and Serge Koussivitsky for Tanglewood.
