Dansk & Quistgaard

Ted Nierenberg, Founder of Dansk, Died

08.04.09 | Comment?

Ted Nierenberg died last Friday at the age of 86, according to the New York Times, who published a very nice obituary in today’s paper.  Nierenberg should be credited with the inspiration and ingenuity to bring Jens Quistgaard’s designs to life as mass produced goods.  His legacy as a visionary, salesman, and businessman – especially his work with Dansk in the late 50s and 60s – will live on.  He was an accomplished photographer in his later years.  He will be missed.
