Spotlight On Our Own Robert Miles Parker

By David Swarens

SOHO founder, Miles Parker, is highlighted in the recent March issue of A&U, America's Aids Magazine. A feature bio, the article is illustrated by five of Miles' recent pen and ink drawings of New York theaters, and includes encounters with the "ghosts of Broadway", raising echoes of SOHO's own recent involvement as stewards of the "haunted" Whaley House. Miles describes incidents in his life and art, including the beginnings of our organization and how he came to found it thirty-two years ago. Miles' interest and art continue to bring focus to the defining impact of our built environment and the effect of its destruction or transformation. The feature will be of interest to Miles' many friends, to those who only know his legend, as well as to those interested in the history of SOHO and the defining presence of our first years.
