The 'Radio Nurse' was to be sculptor Isamu Noguchi's first design for industrial production, invoking the solemnity of a Kendo warrior's mask and acknowledging the sculptor's Japanese heritage. Created as a sculptural form to be sited in a living room, the speaker was to be accompanied by a transmitter that would have been located in an infant's room, and was one of several sophisticated domestic security products created in the wake of the Lindbergh kidnapping, 1932.
