Tom Wolf, Bard College
Tom Wolf is Professor of Art History and Visual Culture at Bard College.  He is an authority on the history of Woodstock, New York, as an art colony. This research led him to study Asian American artists, who had a presence in the colony, and from there his interest has broadened to a wider examination of Asian American artists in the first half of the 20th century. 

A selection of his publications and curated exhibitions includes:
Konrad Cramer: A Retrospective (1982);
