Recollections of Paul Mellon with John Baskett

In this short film we meet John Baskett, friend and art advisor to Paul Mellon, where he recalls what it was like to work with Paul Mellon.
Paul Mellon (1907-1999) was one of the greatest American philanthropists of the twentieth century whose generosity was matched only by his modesty and avoidance of publicity. He devoted his life to supporting causes such as higher education, the arts, research in religion and psychiatry, and the environment.
