We hope that these encounters enrich the aesthetic and intellectual values of our visitors.

This year, such transformations might have occurred when a visitor examined a sublime drawing by Dürer or a wry, provocative work by Steinberg; in hearing a bravura performance of a Mozart sonata or a Jerome Kern song; in reading a letter by George Washington that discloses the aging general’s sense of the young republic or a first edition of Rousseau’s Confessions. Such encounters with the collections occurred this year (as I know they will often in the future) in the Thaw, Engelhard, and Morgan Stanley Galleries, the period rooms, the Sherman Fairchild Reading Room, the Goldsmith Education Center, and Gilder Lehrman Hall.

2007 Report to Donors  Reopening

On April 29, 2006, The Morgan Library & Museum reopened to the public after an extensive three-year renovation and expansion. The $106-million building project, designed by Pritzker Prize–winning architect Renzo Piano of the Renzo Piano Building Workshop, features five exhibition galleries, a 260-seat performance hall, a learning gallery, education center, reading room, spacious central court, enhanced visitor services, and many other public amenities.

Undertaken in collaboration with Beyer Blinder Belle Architects & Planners LLP, this project was the most dramatic expansion and renovation in the Morgan’s history and Mr. Piano’s first completed commission in New York City. The reconfigured campus now provides many new ways for the Morgan to share its extraordinary permanent collections with a twenty-first- century audience.

2007 Report to Donors  Letter from the President

During its first full year operating in its redesigned campus, The Morgan Library & Museum experienced tremendous growth and increased exposure. New exhibitions, reopening festivities, and a full schedule of public programs in Gilder Lehrman Hall attracted record numbers of visitors. In addition, membership doubled, growing from 2,500 members at the beginning of the fiscal year to more than 5,000 by the end.

The Campaign for The Pierpont Morgan Library grew as well. By the end of the fiscal year, nearly $123 million had been identified, with$106 million toward the building project and reopening activities and $17 million restricted for the endowment.

Due to the generosity of our patrons and friends, the spring benefit on March 5, 2007, exceeded its fund-raising goal by nearly 18 percent. The Morgan’s new space was a boon to corporate entertaining as earned income from fees passed the million-dollar mark by year end.

While there was much to celebrate during this historic year, the Morgan has also confronted some of the same challenges that other cultural institutions have faced after an expansion project. Operating expenses continue to climb, and attendance has reached a plateau. I am confident, however, that through the Morgan’s expanded exhibition schedule, greater public outreach, and increased visibility, it will continue to draw new audiences and broaden vital relationships with donors and sponsors.

In January Charles E. Pierce, Jr., announced that after more than twenty years as director of The Morgan Library & Museum, he would be retiring. During his tenure as director, Charlie has contributed immensely to the growth of this institution. I would like to extend my thanks to him, on behalf of the Board of Trustees, for his leadership and vision, which have positioned the Morgan as one of the finest cultural institutions in the country.

In May 2007 the Board of Trustees announced that William M. Griswold will succeed Charlie as director of The Morgan Library & Museum. We are confident that he will be a wonderful successor.

Finally, The Morgan Library & Museum would not be possible without the generous support of our donors. Thank you for your unyielding enthusiasm and for believing in the Morgan’s illustrious future.

S. Parker Gilbert President of the Board of Trustees
