"Name" but Maybe Not the "Spelling"

Dear folks -

In my "after images" post, I put up this photo



and identified this lady as the curator in charge of rugs at the Indianapolis Museum of Art.

Someone has written me on the side say that although he is not sure of the spelling, this curator's name is, approximately, "Niloo Paydar."

Under her adminstration, the Boucher collecton of Balouch rugs came to the Indianapolis Museum and George O'Bannon also donated some interesting material.

Regards,

R. John Howe
