James Grose slides into a chair and cruises readily through a series of questions you know he's answered many times before. He has an affability and boyish energy which, despite his late-forty-something years, he wears with ease. He's also a natural talker. It has been said, he quips, that he talks too much. But he speaks well and his enthusiasm is engaging. At the same time, he is unassuming and explains his work with the sweeping strokes of thorough consideration.
