...pivotal role in the emergence of conceptual art The menu reflects Newman and Nischan's shared passion for organic and sustainable farming. That means many of the vegetables in, say, the "Use a Spoon" Salad (so named because Newman wanted a salad you didn't have to cut or stab at) come from Connecticut growers. The fish are all sustainably harvested types like trout (pan seared, dished up with a bracing, intense Pippin apple puree). Much of the produce is bought at the weekly farmers' market that takes place in the playhouse parking lot from spring to fall...

...environments that alternately nurture and throttle India's growth. With equal aplomb, he tackles topics such as the surging political power of India's lower castes, the rise and (apparent) decline of Hindu nationalism and the decline and (apparent) resurgence of the Gandhi-Nehru dynasty. Luce also takes a stab at explaining the big regional differences in economic development within India.
