Organizing My Library

I'm in the middle of an enormous project organizing and editing my library. I just installed a whole wall of shelves and as a result hundreds of books and magazines are going from piles on the floor onto the shelves. I'm sorting through the magazines and finding lots to let go of (I'm filling several bags to donate to the library at FIT) and rediscovering lots of treasures (design and decorating magazines from the 1930s-1970s). I'll be posting scans of some of the cool stuff. From a pile of 1980s Lei magazines that I'm letting go of is the one below, December 1983, starring my good friend and web designer Alison Cohn, photographed by Paolo Roversi.
