The ship was remarkable in that it was the first nuclear-powered merchant ship. It was constructed with funding from United States government agencies with the mission to prove that the US was committed to the proposition of using atomic power for peace and part of President Eisenhower's larger "Atoms for Peace" project. The sleek and modern design of the ship led to some maritime historians believing it was the prettiest merchant ship ever built. This china embodies both the mission of using nuclear power for peace while incorporating the design inclinations of the ship.

National Lighthouse Museum Spring 2020 newsletter Stay Well... Stay Safe... Stay Strong! Photo Credits: NLM, nature.com, heywood.com National Lighthouse Museum “To preserve and educate on the maritime heritage of Lighthouses & Lightships for generations to come...” A Letter from Our Executive Director Dear Museum Friends, It is hard to believe it’s been over a month since I wrote to everyone announcing the Museum’s closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has since taken over the world! These are most difficult times and I do hope you and your families have held up to this reality check on how quick life can turn us around. Like everything else in our lives, the National Lighthouse Museum is also learning how to find ways to pivot and re-invent ourselves in a new direction – hopefully not for too long, but long enough to cause an upheaval in our exciting schedule of wonderful lectures, special events and lighthouse boat tours we had planned for the near future! As we adjust to the new ”norm” we want to stay positive, but also stay alive and not lose the momentum we have so diligently strived to achieve. These are trying times and all our financial resources will disappear if we don’t get support from our dedicated friends both mentally and financially. Please stay tuned, as we turn to social media for new and interesting directions the Museum will take to maintain its mission to preserve and educate…I do hope you will not forget us and start to enjoy our virtual Museum as we offer: - An Art Exhibit slide show and sale of Florida’s lighthouses

Blue Ridge Models Ss Normandie©
SS NORMANDIE© 1/700 SCALE REF : BRM-70100 © In association with SS Normandie was an ocean liner built in Saint-Nazaire, France, for the French Lines Compagnie Générale Transatlantique (CGT). She entered ser- vice in 1935 as the largest and fastest passenger ship afloat. She is still the most powerful steam turbo-electric-propelled passenger ship ever built. Her novel design and lavish interiors led many to consider her the greatest of ocean liners. During service as the flagship of the CGT, she made 139 westbound transatlantic crossings from her home port of Le Havre to New York. © During World War II, Normandie was seized by US authorities at New York and renamed USS Lafayette.

"All the Struggles of the Present" Alexander Dorner, Henry-Russell Hitchcock, and Rhode Island Architecture
“All the Struggles of the Present” Alexander Dorner, Henry-Russell Hitchcock, and Rhode Island Architecture by DIETRICH NEUMANN From: Sarah Ganz-Blythe, Andrew Martinez: Why Art Museums? The Unfinished Work of Alexander Dorner (MIT Press, 2018) Fig. 1 Henry-Russell Hitchcock Jr., ca. 1935. Photo by George Platt Lynes. Courtesy of Francis Loeb Art Center, Vassar College. Gift of Agnes Rindge Clafin 70 “I AM FULL OF RENEWED ENTHUSIASM AND I HOPE YOU ARE TOO,” Henry-Russell Hitchcock wrote to Alexander Dorner on October 21, 1938, announcing his visit later that week to start working together on an exhibition and book on Rhode Island architecture. He had managed to “dispose of” his Friday classes at Wesleyan University and thus could spend three full days in Providence, “as will undoubtedly be necessary.”1 The two men had met the previous summer onboard the SS Normandie— the largest and fastest passenger ship of its time—en route from Le Havre to New York.2 Hitchcock was returning from a research trip to Europe and Dorner and his wife, Lydia, were leaving Germany. The Nazis had forced Dorner to resign from his post as director of the Provinzialmuseum in Hanover, destroying El Lissitzky’s Abstract Cabinet there, which he had commissioned, and confiscating many Modern and Expressionist pieces for their infamous “degenerate art” exhibition in Munich. Dorner had no immediate job prospects beyond a network of acquain- tances (such as Erwin Panofsky, a former fellow graduate student in Berlin) and the support of Walter Gropius, architect and former director of the Bauhaus in Germany, who had recently accepted the position as chairman of Harvard’s Graduate School of Design.
