Stephen, You have the Gift of Storytelling. I’ve always appreciated hearing your gentle, sometimes mocking, sometimes awestruck, fanciful, or delusional voice in your writing. What a wonderful pleasure to hear your embodied voice, mostly unchanged from the first days of our friendship, telling your story.

All the best.

Thank you, Paul. It has been a long time between when we met, and now. I will tell the story of that Triple with Dave Wade one day in the future, and especially of your cigar boxes and the story of how you filled them, which is an amazing thing to consider.

Stephen. Thank you for this beautiful, moving unexpected story and performance. Almosts feel like fiction -but knowing you and Rinn and Bolivia I know it must be true. Looking forward to seeing and hearing more stories . Ellen Wexler (was your Chelsea neighbor)
