I kept thinking, if only I had the idea to do this then - I could have interviewed them. AAARRGGG!!!<br /><br />As to his one daughter I was never able to locate her. I did find one nephew and we wrote a bit, that was all I could reach.<br />CarrieCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13806131836332474854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048050257207706154.post-26334926399472658982010-01-07T20:51:44.821-08:002010-01-07T20:51:44.821-08:00Truthfully, It is kind of shocking that while I wa...Truthfully, It is kind of shocking that while I was a child in the late 1970s reading these books, The Great Brain was alive.

Over the years of this experience I had to wrestle with my images or expectations, but as the story unfolded it ended showing me an even brighter purpose for John's work. Without the past he recorded, even though he had to fictionalize it, the present in his lifetime and ours now would have been lost.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03636760487509756647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048050257207706154.post-2901213159611728912010-01-07T11:05:45.327-08:002010-01-07T11:05:45.327-08:00Thanks Carrie.

But, I for one am grateful to at least know the facts which your research has uncovered. It is all part of understanding the Fitzgerald's, and I would rather know the truth than remain with a comfortable preconception of the man's life. Having said that, Tom was clearly a man who lived a full and active life (i.e., athlete, artist, philosopher, etc.), and we need to consider this as well when try to imagine his life.Lonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17446349594269981233noreply@blogger.com
