Dear Shu: 

The "boss" finally returned, and your very kind offer of the T-bar table has been approved.  I think I mentioned that Lou Dorfsman arranged for CBS to give several of your pieces that we used in Cranbrook, so we now have the nucleus of a Florence Knoll Design Collection at the Metropolitan.  I hope you will keep in mind our interest in your drawings and papers. 

I trust Miami has escaped the terrible heat wave in the South.  Do come for lunch on your next visit to New York. 

Best regards, 

Craig
