HIGH POINT — The Bernice Bienenstock Furniture Library here has named Karla Webb as its curator to succeed Carl Vuncannon, who has held the job for more than 25 years and will retire at the end of the year.
Webb, who holds an associate's degree in interior design from Randolph Community College, has worked with several furniture companies and has run her own design firm.

"Carl has been an invaluable administrator and curator," said Charles Sutton, chairman of the library's board. "He was chosen by Sandy Bienenstock because he possessed the skills and talents to run the library's varied operations. Besides the day-to-day working with library visitors, Internet queries and industry liaison, Carl has been responsible for our book sales during the spring and fall (High Point) markets.

"He is widely respected for his hard work and dedication. We will continue to call on Carl for his counsel and assistance. We do wish him and his wife, Evelyn, the very best," Sutton said.

The Bernice Bienenstock Furniture Library is a research and design library used by the public, design professionals, architects, students and educators.
