he sent me to see his friend, irwin glickis, then the publisher of the free press. i didn't really know very much of anything really about publishing. and i didn't know very much about irwin because book publishers tend to be background figures so you don't really know when you buy a book off the shelf who the editor and publisher is. it's not what motivates people to buy a book. it turned out that irwin had been a very significant force in american intellectual publishing. it was irwin who signed among other things the closing of the american mind, by alan bloom. and alan had been also a family friend and a teacher of mine. i spent a year at the university of chicago in the committee on social thought, and so when you asked me, you know, who are my influences, all of these men were influential to me. my father primarily -- you know, in so many ways, it is hard to quantify, but more importantly my father was a member of a generation of writers and intellectuals who were conducting a high level conversation about the fate of western culture and its values and other w

but it turned out irwin had been a very significant force in publishing. it was irwin who signed up, among other things, "the closing of the american mind" by alan bloom. and alan had been also a family friend and a teacher of mine. i spent a year at the university of chicago in the committee on social thought. so when you asked me, you know, who were my influences, all of these men were influential to me. my father primarily, you know, in so many ways it's hard to quantify, but more importantly my father was a member of a generation of writers and intellectuals who were conducting a high-level conversation about the fate of western culture and its values. and other writers of his caliber were involved in it, gunther gras, you know, people of that level who felt it was part of their role as serious writers to uphold the values that preserve the conditions of freedom. and, of course, it was the cold war, and that's what the kind of level of discourse was. i would say the same about alan bloom, my teacher, who was -- as i would describe him, a kind of jewish

always, you look at the list of invitations to all the mayoral events you would see mary poppel, leon irwin author +1, married couple. it was a bit conspicuous but that was the culture then. it was understood that individuals could make shift to live in this society so long as you were not publicly outed or other individuals likethat where your reputations would be destroyed . any other questions? >> so when the upstairs loungebird , it needed to be filled by another bar, how long did it take or did everybody stepback ? >> the building was never reoccupied by another bar. it was left with physical signs of charring, the windows were boarded up for several decades. it was a story no one wanted to talk about even if you walk past it , even in a storytelling culture like new orleans when people walk back with those didn't think to tell the story. the owner did receive somewhat of an insurance settlement and two months afterwards parted a bar called the post office located now where, i don't know if you know, where the corner pocket is and some of the upstairslounge crowd would go there and dri
