Baird Jones Dead

What will Page Six do now? Baird Jones, the "Webster Hall art curator" who appeared to be the source for about 60 percent of the New York Post's Page Six items between the years 2000 and 2006, was found dead yesterday in New York.

I met Baird over 20 years ago--he was a constant contributer to the Artworkers News, aka Art&Artists the artist-run journal I was editor of. His art gossip gave our journal a kind of panache we needed to counter our nuts and bolts art issues, we were known for. Baird was kind enough to include me in several exhibitions around the City and elsewhere. The last time I saw him he insisted that I draw his portrait on some tiny pieces of cardboard he carried in his pocket. His presence in the City will surely be missed.
