Koch, Richard H., 1918-. Oral history, 1991.

Title: Oral history, 1991.

Koch recalls his early days as a writer/director of industrial films and as an associate with the law firm of Winthrop, Stimson, Putnam & Roberts, where he worked on Museum of Modern Art matters. He discusses the 1958 fire at the Museum, the legal ramifications of which resulted in his being hired full-time, and describes changes in the structure of trustee committees as well as his own various responsibilities. Koch offers personal reminiscences of Alfred H. Barr, Jr., Rene d'Harnoncourt, John B. Hightower, Bates Lowry, and Monroe Wheeler, and discusses in depth the period in the 1960s during which he, J. Wilder Green and Walter Bareiss assumed joint responsibility for the administration of the Museum. Also discussed are the Museum's 1964 building expansion, the planning phase of the 1984 expansion, the formation of the Museum's professional staff union (PASTA/MoMA), and the employee strikes of the early 1970s.
