Some later volumes are inscribed to members of the Sendor family. Daniel Haberman's Wikipedia entry describes him as "an American poet, translator and graphic designer" and states that he was "instrumental in founding the American Poets' Corner at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City where he was that Cathedral's first Poet-in-Residence, from 1983 to 1986." Wikipedia also reports that he was the graphic designer on 16 Shakespeare volumes so this is not a complete collection of all of the annual Shakespeare volumes designed by him.
