Subject: [Leica] David Douglas Duncan in Austin, TX

Some months ago the University of Texas at Austin aquired the holdings of
photographer David Doublas Duncan.  Starting this weekend there will be a
retrospective of his work at the LBJ Library and Museum on the University
of Texas campus.  The exhibit runs through the end of the year and is free.
For Information call (512)478-7829 or (512)471-8944.

On Monday March 8 Duncan will give a lecture and slide show at the LBJ
Library at 6PM.   Admission is $10. I know this is not much notice, but I
just found out.  If any central Texas LUGers can make it, maybe we can meet
up.

A few days ago there was a radio interview with Duncan that I managed to
tape about half of.  I am going to try to digitize that soon and put it on
my web site.  Maybe with luck I will be able to find the first half of the
interview.  There's also been at least one newspaper article and probably
more.  I will try to make those available soon as well.

Try these web sites for more information:

And one of these days I will get around to updating the Leica Answers web
site in general.  For those new to the list, it can be found at:
