Review: I just wanted to thank you for your article identifying my talented, witty, humble, big brother, Jack Ruther, and the role he plays in our nation's currency design. He has also designed many of our U.S. postage stamps in the past. The walls in my home in Harvest, Alabama, are covered with his artwork. I am so very proud of him. Our father also worked at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, as night foreman of plate printers, from 1938-1973. Brother Jack is also an excellent guitar player, water skier, husband, father, recent grandfather, and role model for others with Tourettes Syndrome, like the talented baseball player from TX, and the famous young English soccer goalee who lives in Memphis, TN. I love Jack so very much. Thank you sincerely. Loving sister, Diane Ruther McFarland

Review: I find the process of designing money so fascinating. I really like the new design for the $20 and $50 bill and can't wait to see the end product of the $10 and $100 bills too!

Review: I would like to ask Mr. Ruther are Americans opposed to placing the face of the more current presidents such as Clinton, Bush, Bush, Carter,Regan, etc... Like in the last 20 years on the front of new currency and like certain monumental landmarks from different states on the back?
