520    In 1920, Henry Fairfield Osborn, director of New York's 
       American Museum of Natural History, traveled to Hawaii on 
       an anthropological research trip. While there, he took a 
       surfing lesson. His teacher was Duke Kahanamoku, a famous 
       surf-rider and budding movie star. For Osborn, a fervent 
       eugenicist, Kahanamoku was a maddening paradox: physically
       "perfect," yet belonging to an "imperfect" race. Osborn 
       dispatched young scientist Louis Sullivan to Honolulu to 
       measure, photograph, and cast in plaster Kahanamoku and 
       other Hawaiian people. The study touched off a series of 
       events that forever changed how we think about race, 
       culture, science, and the essence of humanity.
