The Cleveland Museum of Art's newly-named director, David Franklin, during an informal press session Friday afternoon. He'll be leaving his position as deputy director of the National Gallery of Canada to start at CMA September 20th.
In his casual remarks about taking the job, Mr. Franklin, a scholar in Italian Renaissance and baroque art, emphasized CMA's reputation for the quality of both its collection and its acquisitions. He's no stranger to Cleveland, which he has visited while traveling to cities along the Great Lakes. His wife will be happy to know that WCLV is 24-hour classical at 104.9 FM. His two boys, ages 8 and 12, who play guitar and drum, may feel more at home at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
