I met Arnold in the 70´s, as his student in a class on design in photography at the New School. His clarity of vision and ability to share what was essential in an image were remarkable, and so memorable. We became friends and he was a mentor. His sense of humor and play made life interesting, and I have invaluable memories and photographs as souvenirs. I wish I had a chance to say goodbye and hope he is in peace at last. Sending condolences to Alexander, Peter, family and friends. May...

A talented artist that created a poster for what was to become an unforgettable and historical event. That poster is iconic. Sincere sympathies to the Skolnik family, may God be with you, so very sorry for your loss.

Arnold came to my yoga class in Chesterfield as an "older" adult. He was a brave participant, enjoying his position as the only male in the small class, sharing his humor. We missed him when he moved to Easthampton. His positive energy was an inspiration.

I met Arnold many years ago at the Florence Farmers´ Market where I sell plants. We soon became friends while discussing which plants would be appropriate for planting around his home. Each week he would ask what unusual plant I had brought for him. I recall and treasure our conversations and miss him. Sending my condolences and love to his family. John Spineti
