Draper Director 1st Cavalry Division Museum (254)287-3626 Ex. 11 DSN: 737-3626 -----Original Message----- From: Roger Smith [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2000 1:38 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Museum Fatigue-an exhaustive response Sae Minohara wrote: <I am now writing a report and would like to know who created the word "Museum Fatigue". As far as I know, a man named Mr.Benjamin Ives Gilman wrote a report "Museum Fatigue" in 1916. Does anybody know if he is the one who created the word "Museum Fatigue"? Who is Mr.Gilman?> Well... I can't shed any light on Mr. Gilman but my guess is he either: a) worked in a Museum or, b) did as many of us do and visited far too many Museums in the course of an overseas holiday or, c) took a hard look at some of the so-called permanent exhibits in a few museums we all know! I wish Sae well with this search which promises to as exhausting as the original quest of Mr Gilman.
