...Yale University art school and a former painter. She builds her camels on wood and steel armatures, stuffs them with polyurethane, covers them with goat hair or sheep's wool tinted with brown oil paint.

Despite its distinguished sponsorship, the quartet's success is the result of its own special musical resources. First Violinist Arnold Steinhardt, 32, a tall (6 ft. 3 in.), darkly handsome bachelor, is a Los Angeles-born virtuoso and 1958 Leventritt Competition winner. Second Violinist John Dalley, 33, and Violist Michael Tree, 46, are both talented sons of well-known violin teachers. Cellist David...
