Whoop It Up. Whiteley himself is now in the U.S., at the start of a $500-a-month Harkness Foundation scholarship. He has holed up in a penthouse at Manhattan's Chelsea Hotel with his wife and three-year-old daughter, and is already hard at work on an American series, including a collage portrait of Folk-Rock Singer Bob Dylan.
