...Zimmermann, Director of the Nuremberg Germanic Museum, and Mrs. Zimmermann, were the guests yesterday of Professor Adolph Goldschmidt, visiting lecturer on Fine Arts and the History of German Culture. Dr. Zimmermann is visiting leading American museums for the first time, and is also visiting many private art collections in this country...
