Mary Boone sentenced for Tax Evasion


She'll be in prison for two and a half years, most likely minimum security (like Martha Stewart). I'm truly sorry to see this and find it ridiculous given Trump's unpunished mountains of tax fraud; but I figure she'll make interesting use of the time in the pen. I don't take a positive view of art dealers in general, but, for me, she is one of the few good ones.



I will always see her as I did, the last of several sightings, when I caught her peeking around the corner at me as I admired her portrait by her friend, Eric Fischl. For all her guts and confidence she has retained her humility and even some vulnerability. Good luck to her.
