Belle DeCosta Greene Exhibition
Belle da Costa Greene (1879–1950) was one of the most prominent librarians in American history. She ran the Morgan Library for forty-three years—initially as the private librarian of J. Pierpont Morgan and then his son, Jack, and later as the inaugural director of the Pierpont Morgan Library (now the Morgan Library & Museum). It wasn’t until 1999 that it was discovered that Belle was born African American. A fact never revealed to her professional circles in her lifetime. A fascinating story, and a fascinating show.
