Microscopic Detail. Wonders indeed were embedded in the $6,000,000 neoclassical building for which Stein himself put up $1,325,000 while associates in the entertainment world donated most of the balance. Behind the marble walls were the world's most carefully designed and elaborately equipped facilities for research into the causes and prevention of blindness. The institute's research complex is staffed not only by ophthalmologists, but also by anatomists, physiologists, biochemists, pathologists and a microbiologist.

His production of Love for Love, a brilliant success, was correct down to the Restoration detail of having the gentlemen wear their hats to dinner.
