Well, it should be LoiE Fuller. But, yes, she was born in Fullersburg, Illinois. I was surprised too, as I thought she was French.

Your turn.

Ok, I did just Google Lois Fuller. This must be her then. I saw the "Origins of Abstraction" at Orsay in January and saw film clips of her dancing. Very interesting indeed.

(Actually, you know what, if this is not her, then I'll be really embarrassed. I don't know if Rodin or Toulouse-Lautrec had her as a subject but her dance movements inspired various painters in their abstractions of dance movements.)

What is Bob Brown's NYT connection, by the way?

Ok, clue, and then I'm going. As usual, feel free to continue if you've the right answer.

This city (10 letters, the second of which is an "o&quot is also the title of a literary work that explores the meeting between these two famous men (in some circles, at any rate) (last names of the two are 4 letters and 10 letters) about sixty years ago.

bob_brown was mentioned on this past Sunday's NYT. There was a thread on the US forum about it.

Hint: The two men in question are scientists. No one really knew what the two discussed but speculated that the meeting had something to do with the - - - mi - (6 letters) - om - (4 letters) (very much on the minds of scientists at that time).

Ah, yes, but not quite done yet, Top. Still need to fill out the other two clues (names of the two men).

Eight letters; the 7th letter is the "a" in Copenhagen.
