Who Pays for Museum Director’s Car?
It might be in the public’s interest to sell the Lexus and the $875,000 foundation-owned mansion that Black occupies and place that money in a trust fund. That could yield the museum an additional $90,000 to $100,000 at current interest rates, which might allow it to ease its layoffs.
Black can pay for his own housing and car just like the rest of us. Compensation packages such as his for executives of public institutions should have been relegated to the museum a long time ago.
