Here at last is the full and thoughtful treatment that Tommy Simpson’s prolific, six-decade career deserves. Simpson’s remarkable work defies categorization – drawing as it does from sculpture, poetry, painting, and even theater – yet its power may be attributed to a single, generous impulse: the wish to inspire joy. Oscar Fitzgerald’s sensitive portrait of Simpson and his work not only provides the self-proclaimed 'imaginist' in full, but it also challenges us to re-imagine the history of the Studio Furniture movement as a whole. -- Tripp Evans * Professor of American Material Culture at Wheaton College and author of The Importance of Being Furnished: Four Bachelors at Home, winner of the New England Society Book Award for Art and Photography *
