And I say "Bravo! Viva! Ride on!" to your tribute to Lawrence Ferlingetti which includes your excellent 2005 review of Americus. Yes, it is a very substantive review, as the poet says in his letter to you, and he had to have derived great satisfaction from your "embrace". I read aloud several times in the last two days the closing lines quoted from Americus. The beauty of those lines moved me and brought tears every time. Thank you for taking the time to put this out on July 4th.
Also...I watched the PBS clip and for a moment I was confused because it aired in 2015 yet there was my friend Harold Norse, who had died before then, in a brief shot at the Marin art opening.
