Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 2, 2021 Journalists Posted September 2, 2021 Michael Baum passed away peacefully Tuesday at his farm in Lexington. Michael is survived by his beloved wife, Reiko Baum, and many close friends who loved him dearly. Michael was born in New York City, New York on June 6, 1933. He graduated from the University of Georgia with a landscape architecture degree. He later attended an art school in New York City, where he met his cherished wife, Reiko, also an art student. Michael used his architectural and landscaping skills to continuously create and enhance the beauty of his and Reiko's Man O' War Farm. In addition, the rooftop of his New York apartment was an amazing sanctuary for him and Reiko. He used his architectural skills to establish Framemasters, Inc., a company which provided framing services for large pieces of art, oftentimes for museums. Michael, along with Reiko, were active participants in the Thoroughbred industry. Michael took great pride in his Thoroughbred horses and enjoyed their beauty and presence on Man O' War Farm. He developed a small but very high-quality broodmare band that resides at the farm. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Michael's name to the Man O' War Foundation at the Kentucky Horse Park, a donation to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, or a donation to your favorite charity. The service for Michael will be private. The post Michael Baum Passes Away appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
