Hutchinson moved with assurance through the essential work of assembling financial backing to anchor the museum in suitable quarters and organize notable exhibitions. Once the museum had been grounded in public and critical support, he embarked on a worldwide hunt for exciting acquisitions. As a cultural leader, he was influential on both a local and national level, effective in the face of economic uncertainty, clashing priorities, ignorance, and indifference. Hilliard's text, which brings Hutchinson and the world of Gilded Age Chicago vividly to life, is illustrated with rare photographs, many of them archival images never before published.
