Spectator: Talk about Movies and Plays with the People Who Make Them

A snotty, dismissive piece about Studs in the NY Times which said paper of the establishment's record reserves for effective radicals [] prompted me to both throw the damn paper across the room and vow to read a Terkel volume as soon as possible. Glad I started with this one, it's a treat. Studs's enthusiasm and love of life and art is infectious, and unlike too many interviewers, he came prepared. The interviewees span an impressive gamut of film and theatre people, from Zero Mostel to Fellini to Jacques Tati to Arthur Miller. Not a bad lineup.

I don't know why I've never read other books by Studs, as I've been listening to him on the radio for years. I loved him when I saw him onstage with Jessica Mitford in the 1990s, what a pair.

Here's to Studs. I'm looking forward to his Great Depression and WWII books.
