Condition: Fine. New York, December 11, 1976., 1976. Fine. - Several paragraphs typed on 11 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide light creamy white paper. The dance & music critic Bert Wechsler writes asking City Center producer Jean Dalrymple's opinion as to a letter he "received from the NYS Council on the Arts. I thought you might be interested in seeing it. It confuses me in several ways." Many people, including Hugh Southern and Martin Segal, had assisted him and "On the day the enclosed letter was written, I spoke with Mrs. Hart's secretary. She told me only 2 positions had been filled at the time." Though not stated, it seems from his letter that he was told his application for a position had likely been turned down as all positions had been filled. Signed "Bert". Folded for mailing with some minor creases at the bottom. Else fine. The dance & music critic Bert Wechsler (1933-1997) had performed as an actor and singer before turning to writing. He worked as the editor of Music Journal in the 1980's as well as several newspapers and magazines. Wechsler was also the founding critic and reporter for the New York Theater Wire and co-wrote "Dear Rogue", a biography of the baritone Lawrence Tibbett. The recipient, Jean Dalrymple (1902-1998) was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center.
