In September 2006 I interviewed Mrs. Meda Mládková about her life in Washington (her husband, Jan Mládek, was Director of the IMF's African and Central Banking Departments), her love of art collecting, and the modern art museum in Prague (Muzeum Kampa) she founded with her collection and continues to run. You can read the interview in the IMF Staff News here.
