Description

Greenberg’s work can be seen at the Philadelphia Zoo, where his black granite sculpture, Bear and Cub, is a visitor favorite.

Here he depicts Fredrica “Ricki” Wagman. Her voluminous hair is nearly as large as her head. A Novelist, art collector, and philanthropist, Wagman was a supporter of Woodmere. Her books include Peachy, Mrs. Hornstien, The Lie, and His Secret Little Wife.
