S2E5: David Rockwell
David Rockwell is the founder and president of the Rockwell Group and a theatrical set designer.
On this episode, he talks about his multifaceted exploration of “how the immediate environment can connect people,“ from restaurants and children’s playgrounds to the Broadway stage.
