Watch episode ten of Met Stories in which Paul Konigsburg, E.L. Konigsburg’s son, traces his mother’s inspiration for From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, her beloved book about two children who run away from home to live in The Met; and artist Nikhil Chopra reflects on living in The Met for nine days during his performance art piece last year.
Made for The Met's 150th anniversary, Met Stories is an award-winning video series and year-long social media initiative that shared unexpected and compelling stories gathered from the many people who visit The Met, whether artists, teachers, curators, actors, Museum staff, designers, thought-leaders, or public figures.
