Mike Raymond's article on King Rene was excellent and did indeed reflect a lot of research. The other stories were also very good, but one in particular had special meaning for me personally.
I remember being at the awards ceremony at the 1973 General Assembly (my first) and how totally blown away I was at the speech given by the Duke Flad winner. He was just a college kid like me but he spoke with such eloquence I just could not believe it. I am still impressed by it to this day, although I really don't recall exactly what he said.
Then to read that the speech was taped and played for Will Geer later on, which helped launch Michael O'Neill's acting career, was really cool. I didn't even know that brother had turned into an actor.
I wouldn't mind hearing it again myself after 32 years! Is it on the website?
In ZAX,
