The du Ponts: Houses and Gardens in the Brandywine
Maggie Lidz is estate historian for Winterthur Museum, a du Pont family estate that dates back to 1839. Although best known as a museum of American decorative arts, the horticultural and social histories of Winterthur have been fertile territory for Lidz s research. Her interest in Winterthur began while she was a student in the graduate program at the University of Delaware under eminent architectural historian Damie Stillman. She is the author of Life at Winterthur: A du Pont Family Album (2001)
