Abstract

I did see a good deal of Bucky over a 10 year span. He refused to join the faculty a Bennington College where I taught during most of the 40's. But he often came to talk to the students - I believe the Bennington Students were his first and for many years his main audience. For what Bucky needed above all - more than recognition, more than money - was an audience, and preferably a large one...When I introduced Bucky at hi first speech at Bennington, I told the audience that he would talk for 45 minutes and then answer questions. Four hours later Bucky was still talking, and when I tried to break in, he waved me aside and said, "I'm still on my introduction."
