What A Shocker

NYTimes: Susan Wojcicki, Former Chief of YouTube, Dies at 56

I was in shock this morning when I read that Susan Wojcicki died. I have always been fascinated by Susan and her sisters. Susan was the eldest of three daughters. Her sister Janet is an epidemiologist and a professor at the University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine. Her sister Anne co-founded the genetics testing firm 23andMe, and was once married to Mr. Sergey Brin.

Susan rented her small Menlo Park homeโ€™s garage to Larry Page and Sergey Brin in Sept. 1998. That was their first office. She is definitely one of the major reasons why YouTube is such a success today.

Susan is the mother of five children. Women everywhere applaud her inspiring accomplishments. I am so sad.

We are very happy to welcome Joerg Dressler to the Eliot and Lois Hess art collection. In his recent work, Dressler has been juxtaposing still life imagery on landscapes. We found this painting at the Alden Gallery in Provincetown. His paintings show a sculptural element. He breaks through the surface in organic shapes, revealing underlying panels painted in geometric or op art patterns, Dressler says that this work is โ€œpersonally meaningful. It comes from memories of the past and impressions of Provincetown in the present.โ€ Eliotโ€™s choice.
