Me & Others is the story of my whole life from birth in Kansas City to vigorous old age in rural Oregon, with eventful interludes in New York City, eastern Connecticut, Taos, and Santa Barbara. I have had great joy and exasperation in getting to know myself and others. I have loved and lost and loved again. I have brought children into the world. I have had ineffable satisfactions in putting on plays, writing and publishing books, and playing music. I wanted to tell it all and say how it was for me.
