You might have walked past Mel on a Boston street and never looked twice. Just another guy in a button-down shirt heading to work. But behind his front door was one of New England's most significant private art collections — and a man who spent forty years seeing potential in people before they saw it themselves.
From buying unknown artists' work for twenty dollars to making homeless strangers laugh over coffee at Dunkin Donuts, Mel practiced the art of really seeing people. His story will change how you look at the "ordinary" people around you.
Real people. Real lives. Never ordinary.
