Interesting relationships connected to Kit Laybourne...

Laybourne, Noyes Jr., Noyes Sr., Rand, NeXT, CIA

From wiki:

For a dozen years, Kit and partner Eli Noyes ran an independent animation & branding studio in TriBeCa, Noyes & Laybourne. Most of its major works included ID's for MTV and Nickelodeon, shorts for the Children's Television Workshop, and shows for Scholastic and Nick Junior.

Early life

Eliot Fette Noyes, Jr. was born the son of noted "Harvard Five" architect Eliot Noyes and his wife, interior designer Molly Duncan Weed Noyes. He is the brother of Fred Noyes. He graduated from Harvard University in 1964.[2]

Career

In 1964,[3] Noyes created the animated film Clay or Origin of the Species [4] which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.[5] The film is considered one of the earliest examples of clay stop-animation[6] and is cited by Wallace and Gromit creators, Peter Lord and David Sproxton as a large influence on their work.[7]

Noyes is also noted for his creation of the Sand Alphabet for Sesame Street and the Nickelodeon children's television series, Eureeka's Castle. In 2003, Noyes cofounded the animation production studio Alligator Planet with Ralph Guggenheim and Alan Buder. Noyes directed animation sequences for two films which were shortlisted for the 2009 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, Under Our Skin and The Most Dangerous Man in America, a final nominee.

Works

~Noyes spent twenty-one years working as consultant design director for IBM, designing the IBM Selectric typewriter in 1961 and numerous other products, while also advising the IBM internal design staff.[1] Prior to his work on the Selectric, Noyes was commissioned in 1956 by Thomas J. Watson, Jr to create IBM's first corporate-wide design program — indeed, these influential efforts, in which Noyes collaborated with Paul Rand and Charles Eames, have been referred to as the first comprehensive design program in American business.~

Paul Rand

Emphasis added.

Paul Rand (born Peretz Rosenbaum; August 15, 1914 – November 26, 1996) was an American art director and graphic designer, best known for his corporate logo designs, including the logos for IBM, UPS, Enron, Morningstar, Inc., Westinghouse, ABC, and NeXT. He was one of the first American commercial artists to embrace and practice the Swiss Style of graphic design.

Corporate identities

Rand's most widely known contributions to design are his corporate identities, many of which are still in use. IBM, ABC, Cummins Engine, UPS, and Enron, among many others, owe Rand their graphical heritage.[5] One of his strengths, as Moholy-Nagy pointed out,[4] was his ability as a salesman to explain the needs his identities would address for the corporation.~

NeXT, Inc. (later NeXT Computer, Inc. and NeXT Software, Inc.) was an American computer and software company founded in 1985 by Apple Computer co-founder Steve Jobs.~

~NeXT was founded by Jobs after he was fired from Apple, along with several co-workers.

History

~

1993–96: NeXT Software

NeXT started porting the NeXTSTEP operating system to IBM PC compatible computers using the Intel 80486 processor in late 1991. The operating system was ported to Intel's architecture because of a change in NeXT's business strategy, which was then to remove themselves from the hardware business entirely.

~NeXTSTEP gained popularity at institutions such as First Chicago NBD, Swiss Bank Corporation, O'Connor and Company, and other organizations owing to its programming model.[51] It was also used by many American federal agencies, such as United States Naval Research Laboratory, the National Security Agency, the Advanced Research Projects Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office.[52] Some IBM PC clone vendors offered somewhat customized hardware solutions that were delivered running NeXTSTEP on Intel, such as the Elonex NextStation[53] and the Canon object.station 41.[54]~

DERRY CRAIG’S SIBLINGS SISTER : MARY DUNCAN (MERIDEE) BRUST and her husband and son

Derry Noyes Craig’s sister lives a very quiet life, as far as Wikipedia is concerned. None of the Wiki stories I initially read made direct mention of her, only that Eliot and Molly Noyes had “four children.” Eli, Frederick and Derry were named, but not Mary - until I found their mother’s obituary.

Mary seems to be an impressive, lovely woman. She got her nursing degree from Columbia in 1981. She has served as the director of Occupational Health Services at Rockefeller University in Manhattan.

She is an enthusiastic flutists, who plays often in a woodwind quintet.

I found several web sites which list her as a moderate donor to some educational and artistic fund raisers. Not flashy, or “LOOK AT ME!” at all.

Quiet, purposeful life. Based on what I have learned about her, I admire her.

She is married to a doctor, quite a famous one, Dr. John C. M. Brust of New York. He is a professor of clinical neurology at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and the director of neurology at Harlem Hospital Center. He also has been involved with the New York and Presbyterian Hospital in New York.

He as been in practice since 1962. He has not ever been involved in any malpractice actions of any kind according to two different sites I looked at.

One scientific research paper in which he participated, was an examination of the effects and safety of medical marijuana in selected neurologic disorders. In certain circumstances, the studies’ researchers stated they found the substance to be helpful.

Meridee’s and Dr John’s son, Dr. James Charles Morrison Brust, was married to Dr Sophia Dolly Lin in the Noyes house, built by his grandfather Eliot.

“Dr. Brust, 33, is an infectious diseases specialist at Montefiore Medical Center and an assistant professor of medicine at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, both in the Bronx. He conducts research on H.I.V. and drug-resistant tuberculosis in South Africa. He graduated magna cum laude from Columbia, from which he also received his medical degree.”

In another article, I read that he is now living in Africa,(at the time of the article) and (presumably) researching HIV there.

I also can’t help but wonder if he and his dad and Uncle Frederick had some conversations about “epigenetics” and other such considerations of the microscopic and submicroscopic levels. We’re still holding up the day glo pink flag.

So even quiet Meridee, Derry’s sister, Greg’s siste in-law, brings enhancements to the Greg Craig career track. Two noted doctors in Greg’s brother-in-law and nephew, and a prominent accomplished nurse sister-in-law in a major NY hospital, are in Greg’s circle of connections.

TLDR: ELI NOYES' sister is a doctor who worked for ROCKEFELLER UNIVERSITY (home of notorious pedophile doctor and child pornographer Archibald Reginald.

Her husband does AIDS Research in SOUTH AFRICA.
