New Gallery for Murtogh D. Guinness Collection
By Robbie Rhodes

The "Daily Record" newspaper of Morris County, New Jersey, published
an article about the Guinness Collection with a nice mention of Steve
and Jere Ryder:

  "Steve Ryder, of Summit, understood the children's fascination.
  It was Ryder and his brother, Jere, who is now a conservator of the
  exhibit, who made the connection between Guinness' estate and the
  museum.  Ryder's parents were friends with the Guinness family and
  the boys often visited Murtogh Guinness in Manhattan, who Ryder said
  would like to share his instruments with others."

New Jersey Network Public TV had a brief mention of the ground breaking
at the conclusion of the half-hour news broadcast on Friday evening, 24
March.  More news might be presented later, check for information at
