Henry C SSimons spent almost his entire career at the University of Chicago. A student of Frank H. Knight he was a foundational figure in the development of the Chicago School of economics. He is best known for A Positive Program for Laissez Faire 1934. "In Economic Policy for a Free Society Simons claimed that all it takes to precipitate a massive liquidation of securities is "a relatively small decline of security values" Simons 1948. Simons is emphatic in pointing out that corporations that traded on a "shoestring of equity and under a mass of current liabilities" are "placing their working capital precariously on call" and hence at risk in the event of the slightest financial disturbance Simons 1948. This is precisely the chain of events predicted by Simons in the event of a large-scale liquidation of inflated securities such as mortgage loans in 2008 'sub-prime crash.'."New World Encyclopedia.

"Frank Stewart's Nexus: An American Photographer's Journey 1960s to the Present is a dynamic retrospective of Stewart's photography that centers on his sensitive and spontaneous approach to portraying world cultures and Black life in many forms -- including music art travel food and dance. His work over the years captured intimate and empathetic images of lives experienced and observed across subjects cities and countries. Tracing both Stewart's explorations of life on the road and the trajectory of his stylistic journey the exhibition brings together a comprehensive visual autobiography through over 100 black-and-white and color photographs as well as a selection of cameras from Stewart's personal archives. Frank Stewart's Nexus explores Stewart's avid experimentation and numerous subjects over the course of half a century including aspects and rituals of Black culture trips to Africa and Cuba and music. As the senior staff photographer for Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra for 30 years Stewart captured both public performances and candid personal moments including well-known photographs of jazz legends Miles Davis Ahmad Jamal and Wynton Marsalis. Frank Stewart's Nexus also provides a window into less-explored aspects of Stewart's practice including his more abstract and painterly Drawings series inspired by his travels. Color has dominated Stewart's photography for the past two decades and he has also increased the sizes for many images. In more recent images he captures the ever-changing landscape and environmental catastrophes. At the center of his varied practice is a familiarity Stewart creates with the people and places that inhabit his works." --. Rizzoli Electa paperback books
