Bronze honoring Superintendent Theodor R. Geisel created by Lark Grey Dimond-Cates

BY JOSEPH CARVALHO III

The Friends of Springfield Parks has commissioned an 8’ ft. x 6’ ft. bas relief bronze sculpture that depicts a young Dr. Seuss and his father, longtime Park Superintendent Theodor R. Geisel in Forest Park with characters and images from the park during their time. The backside engraving tells the story of Superintendent Geisel and how his son Theodor Seuss Geisel was inspired by his experiences and interactions at Forest Park and the Forest

Park Zoo. Creation and installation of the sculpture is the first phase in the development of the Dr. Seuss experience at the Forest Park Horticulture Center. Theodor S. Geisel’s stepdaughter, Lark Grey Dimond-Cates is the artist who sculpted the bas relief. She is the sculptor of all of the bronze’s in the national acclaimed Dr. Seuss Memorial Sculpture park at the Springfield Museums.
