My dad was not a Monumnets Man, but I am a scholar of Asian art educated at School of Oriental and African Studies, (SOAS) at University of London. I am doing a study on American collectors of Asian art, and the MacArthur section of the MFAA was a :game changer: encouraging John D. Rockefeler III to increase his Asia collection with the help of Sherman Lee. My study is going to be more academic than your incredible book, I am focusing on Sherman Lee, Laurennce Sickman, and a couple of others, including Langdon Warner. I am also going to focus on the template that the Monuments Men project formed for protecting cultural property, and how it was ignored by Donald Rumsfeld and the entire mess in Iraq, where he was quoted :stuff happens"-- no General Eisenhower, he.
