Joe Drogos: Hey, Schmuck,I just read your comments-- ain't it amazing that someone who was actually falking blacklisted would be redbaited after he was dead? Come to think of it, though, Studs did always say that being blacklisted was one of his greatest honors and that getting kicked off television pushed him into radio and, eventually, books.
Joe Drogos: WFMT posted remembrances of Studs here: http://www.wfmt.com/main.taf?p=1,1,41,31. Also, Eight Forty-Eight's Richard Steele hosted a show with Quentin Young, Jaime Kalven and Alex Kotlowitz that basically featured caller's memories of Studs.

We love us some small presses here at Literago, natch. And so should you. So why not get yourself a title by a venerable small press like Coffee House, Milkweed, Graywolf, or hometown little-guy heroes Featherproof right now, so you’ll have it finished and ready to discuss in March? (OK, yes, disclosure in full, I have a certain happy connection to Featherproof…)

Get more info on Small Press Month here. You can check a list of celebratory readings in various cities (there’s some TBA on March 7 at the Poetry Center, apparently; we’ll keep you updated as details unfurl) and get some title recs.
