Hey there All-
A friend is looking for photos from around 1960 of famous authors of "The New Yorker" set...are there any threads here for writers?
Thanks in advance--
Yeah! We need something on John Kennedy Toole - he was an Ivy dresser, by all acounts. 'Confederacy of Dunces' makes reference to a few Ivy details.
Instead of some pics of John Cheever, here's an interesting link about him: http://www.ivy-style.com/the-john-cheever-centennial.html
I remember another post about Cheever and Updike, but it seems to have gone. Also funny to note how Cheever wrote mainly about the upper middle class, whereas Updike is mostly known for his series about an upper-working class man.
