Thank you Deirdre for posting this. I am recent enough to the profession that I had never heard of Peggy Zorach. But in the last few years (between the MoMA archives' exhibition project and research by our education department) we have come to a greater appreciation of the extended Zorach family, not just William and Marguerite Zorach, but Peggy's sister-in-law Dahlov Zorach Ipcar, and their important role in MoMA's history <https://www.moma.org/interactives/moma_through_time/1930/dahlov-ipcar-a-modern-art-education-experiment/>. I'm fascinated that, through Peggy, the family has further connections to the New York museum and library community.
