Dear David:

Please pardon my delay in getting back to you on the matter of
the lecture at your institution. The holiday season seems to
drain us of all of the potential for everything except being
commercial. So now I am trying to recover.

I am pleased to say that I shall be able to accept your invitation
to lecture at Northwestern on April 25 as that date is
clear on my calendar. I do look forward to that event and sharing
conversation with you about what is going on here.

We are again in search of a gallery director but I am happy
that you did not brave the waters and hook up with these strange
people. They seem to think that people are lined up to come
here and be abused by their nonsense simply because they live
near Washington. You are much better off in Chaicago and environs.

I am enclosing a publicity photo and a vitae for your file. I
hope that everything continues to go well with you and do give
my best to your family.

Sincerely,

David C. Driskell
