Hirschfeld's Broadway Scrapbook March 8, 2011

One of the most important figures in contemporary caricature, Al Hirschfeld (1903-2003) immortalized the icons of American theater in delightful drawings depicting Broadway stars and productions. 'The Orchid Show: On Broadway's' complementary exhibition, 'Hirschfeld's Broadway Scrapbook,' in the LuEsther T. Mertz Library's Rondina and LoFaro Gallery displays more than 30 drawings and prints, as well as posters, programs, and sketchbooks from the Al Hirschfeld Foundation that tell the history of the Great White Way as seen by its foremost chronicler.
