When I was at Yale in the eighties he, among much more, gave me books for my by that time very young daughters which shaped their image of America. Unfortunatly we lost contact since then.

Dear Mrs. Hamlin, less than a week ago ILooked for Cyrus' address for an invitation to my husband's memorial service.

He loved working with him on Goethe's Faust , and some day I hope to meet you and tell you about the two's serendipitous meeting in N.Y. in the fifties.
My heart goes out to you,-we had just celebrated our 66th wedding anniversary-and...
