BRIDAHAM, Secretary CHICAGO 3 ILLINOIS TELEPHONE CENTRAL 6-7080 February 16, 1956 Dear Mrs. Sage: This is only a personal note to thank you for your kind and prompt answer. I was so touched with what you say about you [[your]] inability to talk about your paintings. I am glad you feel that way and I apologize for the intrusion. I do not cherish this part of my job very much because I do not think that the artist should have to interprete [[interpret]] his work for us in words. Thanking you very much again, Waltraut M. Van der Rohe (Miss) Waltraut M. Van der Rohe
