...give a player like that the green light. You’ve gotta let her loose.”* * *On her way to 2,000 points in the competitive D.C. Independent School circuit, Jessica Holsey didn’t need to learn much. From her earliest moments on a basketball court, Holsey found the requisite basketball skills within herself. Her father, Ron, is a restless athlete in his own right. He played basketball and football in high school, and still entertains himself with golf—“all the time now,” she says, exasperated...

It was after publishing his 1950 work, “Soviet Politics: The Dilemma of Power” that Moore joined the Russian Research Center. Even in his earliest days at the Center, Moore was “a kind of synthesizer, a big picture...
...missed. The two part exhibit, which is running concurrently at the two libraries, features excerpts of original manuscripts and early editions of works written by and about these two seminal figures of 18th century classical music. At Loeb, you can view Johan Forkel’s earliest biography on Bach, or try to decipher Mozart’s handwriting on the dedication of his first string quartets to Haydn. There is also an entire section dedicated to four sons of Bach: Carl Philipp Emanuel, Wilhelm Friedmann, Johann Christian, and Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst. Bach’s sons are largely responsible...
