		Although Judy Liff studied art history at the University of Michigan and is, in fact, the daughter of an artist, it took a book — a big book — to set her collecting passion in higher gear.
		Over the years, the Liffs traveled to galleries, mainly in New York, and purchased ''what we liked and thought was good,'' she said.
		Liff, an Ohio native remembered by longtime Nashville public radio listeners from her years as development director at WPLN-FM during the 1980s, credits her late husband with ''an amazing aesthetic sense.'' Liff herself speaks of her own ''Oh, my!'' factor that also motivated purchases.

		In the original Liff books, most of the definitions described objects or events in the real world, but there was also a sub-set of "archaic" definitions which were entirely fictitious, and this tendency often carries on when others such as myself make up definitions.
