Have Fun - Do Good

MAY 16, 2012

Really, this is only the tip of a very long fun/good list that would include spending time with my tough and tender little boy, taking him to museums, restaurants, parks, the climbing gym, letting him ride his bike to his friend's house. Supporting art and artists, writers and books. I love how he comes home smelling like fire and mud.

I met one of these data artists last year while visiting a friend/journalist at the New York Times.
