	★ Reviews of books about Stark
		Admiral Stark`s life, especially the fruits of his hard work, would have been locked away forever in the military archives of history if it weren't for the endless work of B. Mitchell Simpson III resulting in his book, Admiral Harold R. Stark: Architect of Victory, 1939-1945.
		Simpson also co-authored with John B. Hattendorf and John R. Wadleigh, Sailors and Scholars: The Central History of the U.S. Naval war College (1989).
		Simpson also goes into great detail about Stark`s work during the war instigating the BAC-1 conversations in 1941, being responsible for training and supporting the naval units involved in the 1944 Normandy invasion, and acting as an ambassador to Charles de Gaulle throughout most of the war.

	San Diego Metropolitan - Making Money - August 2000
		Two national business magazines are said to be working on major profiles of Simpson, who for years now has quietly managed billions of dollars out of a small office that looks more like an architect's aerie than a bastion of finance.
		Simpson, an unassuming man who takes long walks unnoticed in his own neighborhood and through Del Mar, is believed to be Buffett's heir apparent as chairman of one of the world's most remarkable corporations.
		Considering that Buffett runs Berkshire Hathaway out of a small office suite in Omaha and lives in the first house he ever bought, it is quite possible that no matter what Lou Simpson's future holds, he will remain in San Diego County.

	Fountains Abbey, Studley Royal, National Trust, historic site
		His gardener William Fisher was an employee of the estate, and the garden works were carried out by local labour under the direction of local man John Simpson, who was succeeded in 1728 by the master mason Robert Doe from London.
		The only professional advice John Aislabie appears to have received was from the distinguished Palladian architect, Colen Campbell.
		The Water Garden, with its formal, geometric design and its extraordinary vistas, was inspired by the work of the great French landscape gardeners but is entirely individual in character.

	Sound Gallery and Motion Studio
		Having come from a family where my mother, Ferne Cairns, was a concert soprano, who had sung with Nicholas Goldschmidt and John Avison, and my father, Douglas Simpson, a pioneering west coast Modernist architect, my fate was sealed to either choose between the two mediums of music and painting or somehow juggle
		In the fall of 1965, I was an aspiring 18 yr.old jazz drummer, who was also a fledgling painter and art student.
		To me this was something akin to choosing between breathing and eating so I decided to try to progress in both mediums
