Freud's last show in America was at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington in 1987. It didn't go to New York. It wasn't modern enough for the Museum of Modern Art; and at the Met there was a suspicion that, as one of its senior staff remarked, "Lucian can be wonderful one picture at a time, but a row of 20 could be a bit of a bore." Happily, the museum has now changed its tune and hung some 80 Freuds, the earliest done in 1945, the latest finished this year...
...rough-and-tumble, folksy ways had worked well for Johnson in the Senate's closed and clubby atmosphere and made him respected and feared among the Capitol's insiders. But his style often raised ridicule and suspicion in the national spotlight where he had to dwell as President.

Since Gallo's lab and the Pasteur Institute cooperated regularly and swapped viral cultures, suspicion arose that Gallo had appropriated the French virus as his own. Gallo acknowledged that the two viruses were the same and that Montagnier had found it first. But Gallo maintained that his lab had independently isolated it from patients' blood samples, not stolen it out of one of Montagnier's samples. Furthermore, % Gallo...
