A few blocks away, on the funkier corner of North Winooski and Pearl, Clears latest project is, one could hope, a sign of the times: a bicycle rack. She responded to an appeal from Burlington City Arts to create an artistic bike rack, and won the gig with her design inspired by a coiling Kryptonite lock. The sinuous functional sculpture is made of steel, with a giant "tumbler lock" that actually moves. "People have asked me what combination 'opens' it," Clear reports, "but it's just for fun.
Clear, a New Jersey native, is 27 and a 2001 graduate of the University of Vermont. Her metal works include custom signage and sculpture for exhibition - she's participated in Art Hop and Stowe's annual outdoor-sculpture show called "Exposed!" And she has the good fortune to be working alongside Bu...

When Maggie Catmur Murff of East Memphis walked down the aisle in 2009 in Memphis, she wore the 1960s wedding dress worn by both her mother and her aunt and a 12-foot train worn by her great- grandmother in 1916. It featured cotton plant flowers done in seed pearls.
The resizing, repair and redesign needed to make it all work were done by Dawn's Couturiere, the small East Memphis atelier that has played an important role in the lives of generations of Mid-South families.

Though they cannot supplant nor replace other methodologies, films can possibly raise new questions, provide different perspectives, and reveal unique ways of knowing about seminal subject, at least by comparison to the standard fare of academic analysis. Each one, "ethics" and "leadership," draw upon substantially different intellectual literatures, scholarly methodologies, traditional assumptions, and disciplinary perspectives. Film, often far better than social science literature, may provide a more "holistic account" of not only individual lives, but entire situations where ethical leadership is practiced.
