Hi Amid - I’d be happy to organize a signing event at the ASIFA archive if you’d like. I’d need a month or so advance notice on the date to get publicity out to the membership.

I appreciate the offer Steve! I’ve got LA events pretty well covered though. I’ll announce them soon once they’re finalized.

After much anticipation, I got your book a couple of days ago and I haven’t been able to put it down…it’s great! I’d been expecting lots of beautiful reproductions, which it delivered, but I’m also really enjoying the information and your excellent writing. Thanks!

Is there anyway to get the dvd if we’ve bought the book on Amazon? I can’t make it to OAF this year but would love to get my greedy lil’ hands on those clips.

Can’t wait, Amid! I’m expecting you to sell that sucker out in Ottawa.

Hi- I am Cliff Roberts daughter. I’d be interested in seeing the article he wrote in 1971, which was about the time he had gotten involved with Sesame Street.
Drop me a line! Thanks, Ellen
