Join stone carver, calligrapher, designer and 2010 MacArthur Fellow Nicholas Benson as he talks about the history of the John Stevens Shop, a stone carving business founded in 1705, and the six generations of Stevens who ran the shop from 1705 to 1926, as well as the legacy passed along to him from his grandfather and father. He will also discuss the future of the business and how it has adapted to the Information Age.
