A LETTER FROM HELGE
Helge Ederstrom to Edward Adolph
Since retiring at 70 of age in 1978, I have kept active in several pursuits. I maintain a matchbox-sized office at the University of North Dakota Medical School and keep in touch with the events in the Dept. of Physiology. ...
Now that my academic duties have shrunk, I have had more time to spend on my lifelong hobby of water-color painting. Last fall I had a one man show of some 40 paintings at the University Art Gallery. The exhibit contains mostly realistic North Dakota rural scenes---abandoned farm buildings, old machinery, and my favorite subject, grain elevators. Most of the paintings were sold. Also, I have had smaller exhibits around the area.
My teaching has taken a complete turnaround, in that I now teach a course in paintings each semester at the University Art Center. Both college students and townspeople are enrolled, and it has proven quite a novel challenge to a scientist.
