The Artist by Hodge show was first imagined by James Widder, who has kept in touch with David Hodge, after being one of his students at Campus School. Soon, others joined in, forming a work group that brought the show to life after more than a year of Zoom calls, Google Drive documents, interviews and meetings.
With gratitude, thanks go especially to:
James Widder: show concept, gallery show
Magda Krance: work group organizer, cat herder, copywriting gallery show
Liz Netzel: copywriting, gallery show
Lynn Gaede: project manager, gallery space planner
Marcia Stone: submissions, fundraising, design, copywriting, online show

David Hodge: absolute inspiration
