Portrait of a Game-Changer
Norman Rockwell Museum recently had the special honor of a visit from a man who is not only one of our generous art donors, but also a true innovator (in a field that is now a billion dollar industry)!

Back in the late 1960s, this creative engineer developed the first of a series of games to play on a television screen, including the popular ping-pong game.
Baer recently welcomed representatives from the Museum to his home in Manchester, New Hampshire, where he agreed to a videotaped interview about his remarkable career, and his unlikely connection to Norman Rockwell.
