Gene Moore's circus figures for Tiffany & Co. continue to excite collectors and these were given by Gene Moore to fellow window designer, Tom Beebe. Gene Moore acted as both mentor and friend to Beebe, who is responsible for the Moore window archives preservation and digital presentation at the Smithsonian museum. Tom Beebe continues to enchant New Yorkers with visual projects and last year was responsible for the holiday display at the Pulitzer Fountain.
