This morning’s tribute to Stephen Sondheim was stunning, sad, inspiring, & left my heart so full. It was healing to see & squeeze so many friends. And a took a few photos:

Stephen Sondheim visited us @BronxZoo in 2019. His brilliance & love of words, word origins & lyrics showed through every conversation. Intrigued by animals he met, he delighted when rhymes that instantly formed in his mind came spontaneously from his lips. Genius is genius.

[Matthew Saal @mattsaal]

Such a loss. But he left us so much.

Today New York State reached our goal of 70% adult vaccination.

That means we can return to life as we know it.

Effective immediately, state-mandated COVID restrictions are lifted across commercial and social settings.

Thank you, @brikeilarcnn -
Here’s a great piece by historian James McPherson on Memorial Day, it’s origin, it’s purpose. https://t.co/0ahjZjJ7Ph

And if most Americans are disconnected, divested from the human cost of war, the price will be higher because of it, paid for by a small part of the population -- and the rest of the country might not even notice. 14/14

"A lively, encyclopedic survey of the struggle for marriage equality," @ericcervini calls @Engagement_Book in his @nytimesbooks review, which isolates a few key storylines: that conservatives chose the playing field and how money changed the game. https://t.co/uyDjcX9JHr

It's #ArborDay! Trees are not only part of a healthy ecosystem but are a part of many of NY’s scenic landscapes.

And with 61% of NY covered in forested land, it's important we protect our trees & forests to keep NY healthy and beautiful.
