Queer Places:
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 5th Ave, New York, NY 10028

Vincent Dyckman Andrus (November 5, 1915 - March 9, 1962) was a curator in the American Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. He was a member of the Horace Walpole Society, elected in 1955.

He was the son of John Emory Andrus (1883–1947) and Faye Alvira Cole (1883–1965) and grandson of John Emory Andrus, known as the "millionaire straphanger" because he commuted to work despite great wealth. John E. Andrus built the Andrus Bldg, 512 Nicollet Av., Minneapolis, and the Dyckman Hotel, as well as the Plymouth Bldg. The "Dyckman" comes from his wife's family name, Julia Maria Bourne Dyckman.
