Letter from John G. Neihardt to Albert Husted, May 8, 1973

5835 Vine Street Lincoln, Nebraska 68505 May 8, 1973 Mr. Albert Husted 220 W. 93rd Street New York, N.Y. 10025 Dear Mr. Husted:

I have been reviewing my tangle of mail, and I am afraid I did not reply to your letter of March 11, 1973. Certainly I intended to reply, for I was pleased with your proposition that you come here during the summer and do some photographing.

If I did not answer you, I beg you to pardon me on the grounds that I have been helping in the recording of my work by the United Artists. We spent eight weeks at the job and it nearly demolished me. I realize that this is not an excuse but it is an explanation.

If you are still interested, please write me again and I will try to be more prompt.

The first album is to be issued in July, and I understand there will be number of them.

With all kind thoughts, sincerely, John G. Neihardt
