We deeply appreciate your gracious willingness to serve on the Commission and look forward to your valued advice and your support of the affairs of American art within the Smithsonian. I hope that you will be able to join us for the next Commission meeting on May 1, 1989, and look forward to seeing you then.

Sincerely,
