Lock-picking mastermind with impeccable literary taste.
STORY TIME YA'LL:
For the last two years, books have been quietly going missing from the Sartle art history library, located at Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture. Jazz: A History of America’s Music, a book on the Kroller-Muller museum, one on the Holocaust Museum, Salvador Dali’s cookbook...
Eclectic, to say the least. Assuming forgetful interns or employee error, but fearing the worst, we got security cameras.
On the morning of December 28th, around 7:30 AM, we caught our shadowy culprit on film (!!!)
