Autor

The Edward Gorey Charitable Trust was created by Edward Gorey in his will, designating it as the sole owner of his intellectual property and charging it to benefit organizations “whose primary purpose is the welfare of animals.” The Trust pursues its mission by licensing Mr. Gorey’s intellectual property, lending his work to museums and other exhibitors, and issuing grants for animal rescue, care, and conservation. In 2019, the Trust began new efforts to organize Mr. Gorey’s archive for the use of researchers and educators and to expand the reach of his work through collaborations with artists, designers, non-profit organizations, and others. Gregory Hischak is a playwright, poet, and performer based in Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts. He has curated and designed exhibits at The Edward Gorey House, which serves to preserve Gorey's life and legacy, since 2014, and been its Director since 2020.
