Eames / Ostroff

Eames talk and signing with Daniel Ostroff for his book, An Eames Anthology.

The event was hosted by Boomerang for Modern.

Ostroff's presentation included a photo of the pet octopus at the Eames Office when they were working on a proposal with Kevin Roche, John Dinkeloo & Associates for a National Aquarium in Washington D.C.

The aquarium project was funded, but President Nixon pulled the plug. Now I know why they called him Tricky Dick. He is officially my least favorite President. Charles should have socked him for that move.

Daniel signed my book.
