A close friend and adviser to Ms. Landau, Mr. Katz also serves as curator for the collection. The center is appointed with furniture by Warren McArthur, a mid-20th century designer of whose work Ms. Landau has collected some 150 examples. Emily Fisher Landau, the widow of Martin Fisher and now married to Sheldon Landau, is a principal in the real estate firm of Fisher Brothers. Mrs. Landau is a generous donor to other institutions, notably the Whitney Museum of American Art, where the fourth-floor galleries are named for her, and where she serves on the Board of Trustees.
