Simonson to Speak

Lee Simonson '09, one of the country's leading authorities on theatre design and function, will discuss the problems of "A University Theatre" at 4 p.m. today in Fogg Art Museum.

After graduating from Harvard, Simonson became a set designer for the Theatre Guild and the Metropolitan Opera. As a student he prepared for a career in architecture and consequently has done considerable work in the actual designing of theatres, principally in the West and Mid-West.

Simonson has also written several books concerning the problems involved in set design.
