I caught New Yorker Remak Ramsay during a lunch break in his condo building on Central Park West. He said for all of his professional working years, that premiere location was a straight shot subway ride to the theater district and very convenient. He was eager to get out of the City and back to Monhegan Island off the coast of Maine. He has spent many summers there, often in company with the Wyeth family and, in particular, Jamie Wyeth. He has a very large and self-described “scholarly” art collection that he hopes some institution like Gilman or Princeton might be happy to have.
