About this listen
In this episode, Boyd and Cathleen talk to Leslie Jones, Director of Museum Affairs and Chief Curator at The Preservation Society of Newport County, about the society's new exhibit: Richard Morris Hunt: In A New Light. Through the conversation we learned more about this important Gilded Age architect and his vision for American national identity that visible through his architectural projects, the organizations he helped found, and the large collection of his papers, many of which are on display here. The exhibit will run from May 30 – November 2, 2025 at Rosecliff Mansion in Newport.
