Dr. Mysterious -- I have the Ian Hamilton biography "In Search of JD Salinger," and though I can't remember for sure, I would bet that it might be in there, if you can get a hold of it. I feel obligated to say that I do not support the unauthorized biographing of any genius who wishes to remain alone and at peace, and I would never encourage anyone else to drive up to his damned house with a personal letter or a ziplock bag full of soybeans or anything else. I should also say that the esteemed Harold Ober is, indeed, esteemed. Rick
