No I haven't because my father was totally involved in his art  and 
his life revolved around working in his studio. Not much drama there. 
He did write about his marionette experiences entitled "The 
Marionette Actor" It is sold in hardback and paper back.

His book is available online through Amazon.com , Ebay and the 
publisher Rowan and Littlefield. www.rlpgbooks.com  I  order from 
them direct by phone and used to get a 50% discount. (I told them I 
was a relative and had a storefront). Buy online from them direct and 
you can get  a 30% discount

$33.50 Paper  0-8026-0012-3 1987 114pp

$58.00 Cloth 0-8026-0011-5 1987 114pp

I have an unpublished manuscript of his life up to 1939 which has a 
lot of stories about his boyhood in New Orleans which is publishable 
with some editing but that is for a later date perhaps after the 
exhibition in 2007. Tjhe book I would like to write is my 
autobiography of being raised in an artistic environment and where it 
led.

Thanks for your interest
