Letters to the Editor - Nov/Dec 2011

A Memorable Visit to Lafayette, Louisiana

To the Editor:

Your article has captured Bob [Rauschenberg] as what he was to me: the most open, approachable, generous and friendly person one could wish ever to meet. I met him in the street in 1964 in front of Sadlers Wells dance theatre. I had arrived after an eight hour drive through the night to pick up my tickets for the Merce show opening that evening. Bob walked around the corner and I called to him. He was looking for ‘props’ in the street for use in the scenography of the performance. We talked at length and he invited me backstage and again to the last performance where we met backstage. Later he invited me to join him on the plane back to New York. This willingness to help young artists (I was 18 at the time) was to be observed throughout his life. A great artist and equal man.

To the Editor:

Diana Meehan was a teacher at our high school, San Lorenzo High in San Lorenzo, California in 1968. She was an amazing person back then. It’s wonderful to see what she’s become.

Prison College Programs Unlock the Keys to Human Potential

To the Editor:

There’s something wrong about convicts receiving degrees when law abiding citizens can’t because we need every penny to support a family. Should we recommend our kids get in trouble so they qualify for an education?
