Descriere

The journey continues for the world′s most prestigious cultural association

"Lincoln Center′s impact on the artistic world and landscape of New York City has been seminal. This book masterfully tells how it all happened: the origins of programming, the physical growth of the campus, and the governance of a great institution. As an artist, I am grateful for Lincoln Center and am impressed with its ambitious plan for the next generation of artists and audiences."
Emanuel Ax, pianist, graduate of the Juilliard School, and frequent Lincoln Center performer
"Lincoln Center: A Promise Realized, 1979 2006 reveals the behind–the–scenes stories audiences rarely get to see or hear. It tells of the artistic choices, programming decisions, leadership and fiscal challenges, and leading personalities that have shaped the last twenty–five years at the world′s preeminent performing arts center."
Audra McDonald, four–time Tony Award–winning actress and singer, graduate of the Juilliard School, and frequent Lincoln Center performer
"Lincoln Center: A Promise Realized, 1979 2006 offers an insider′s account of the leadership challenges that shaped Lincoln Center throughout its maturation to become what it is today: a civic and cultural treasure. The multifaceted management concerns in working with the world–class arts organizations are fascinatingly recounted. That legacy of talented and wise stewardship, combined with a current corps of determined and resourceful loyalists, will undoubtedly convert Lincoln Center′s ambitious current plans into a sparkling reality."
Jerry Speyer, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Tishman Speyer Properties
