Thomas Patrick John Anson--officially, Lord Lichfield--came to one photographic specialty by birth and the other by disposition. As Queen Elizabeth II's cousin, he had access to royalty, famously using a referee's whistle to organize group shots at the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Di. And as a world-class bon vivant, he became a host and chronicler of swinging London: when he lensed one of Mick Jagger's nuptials, he doubled as best man. Of the '60s, he once said, "We did behave quite badly." And he never claimed great artistry. But he made full...
...Mafia. As one of Tennessee’s most important hip-hop groups, they’ve lived at the pseudo-Satanic edges of mainstream hip-hop for over a decade, but have staunchly refused to change their style to sell records. Eight years ago, I remember when my cousin showed me “Mystic Stylez,” their first full album that actually sold outside of Memphis, and being scared out of my mind...
...OFFICE NBC, Tuesdays, 9:30 P.M. E.T. When thisverit-style comedy made its debut last spring, it got little love from fans pining for the British original.

But it's the relative unknowns, particularly Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski as co-workers with an unconsummated crush, that give The Office...
...accounts. First, the composer was present in the audience; and second, the viola is rarely used as a solo instrument. “The traditional concerto is a battle between the soloist and the orchestra,” says Zander, and the viola—unlike its close cousin, the violin—has no chance of victory. With this in mind, Harbison, who plays the viola himself, cut the orchestra’s size significantly. The result was a more balanced relationship between orchestra and soloist, one in which the viola can hold...
...works are hanging side by side. It’s not simply that both were created by Edgar Degas during a trip to Italy in the 1850s.“He reused the same pose,” Wolohojian explains. The proud posture of Degas’ young cousin Giulia Bellelli is the exact mirror of the disdainfully regal pose of the woman in the Renaissance portrait. Wolohjian hopes visitors will see these sorts of connections as they explore the exhibit, on display at the Sackler Museum now through Nov. 27. Unlike Wolohojian, who currently teaches History...
