Rich in Culture
Regarding the appointment of UCLA Executive Vice Chancellor Andrea L. Rich as president and chief officer for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (“Rich’s Appointment Is Epic Change for LACMA,” Calendar, June 28).
Fifteen years ago, when I was a faculty member at UCLA, Ms. Rich was in charge of distributing grant monies for educational aid in the classroom. As a recipient of said monies on several occasions, I found her ultimately more supportive of my needs, as an artist attempting to communicate to my class (read: public) than most of my colleagues with whom I taught.
Flash ahead to last week’s announcement--and the anticipation of a provocative future for LACMA and culture in L.A.
