To Anyone Who Ever Asks: The Life, Music, and Mystery of Connie Converse

Howard Fishman
Ryan H. WalshRyan H. Walsh

Today, I finished this remarkable book. The author has transformed a mysterious footnote into a fleshed-out, fully human, all-in, flawed artist/composer. What a triumph! "To Anyone Who Ever Asks: The Life, Music, and Mystery of Connie Converse" by @howardfishman is out 5/2. https://t.co/2RpPm0caOy

It's @WFMU's pledge drive right now and Irwin Chusid is giving away a copy of Astral Weeks on vinyl and a signed copy of my book (which, astoundingly, came out 5 years ago this week). Listen/pledge: https://t.co/BwBPVMIvCd https://t.co/4q46sP0qt2

I cannot believe that audio exists of Andy Kaufman and Bob Zmuda planning how to fake Andy’s death as a prank and how, when he really dies, no one will believe it. https://t.co/rmOYPuIwRq

Career

Ben Alex

@BCDreyer Ben, question for you: has the term "grifter" changed in meaning in the last 10 years? Always thought it was for petty, small crimes/scams but I see it applied to ppl like Trump, Santo, Alex Jones, etc and they are all fairly big, invested career criminals?

Final Harvest: Poems

Emily Dickinson
Ryan H. WalshRyan H. Walsh

Do you think that's Emily Dickinson, age 25, on the left? The primary image of her, that graces the covers of so many of her collections of her writing & bios, was taken when she was only 16, well before she became the person we encounter in her poems. https://t.co/sMYwsgtHvg https://t.co/wxj3PpYSZF
