I just presented Art Spiegelman with the National Book Award Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, on the same day that PENAmerica put out a letter signed by Art and Margaret Atwood and me, among others, protesting the latest round of book bannings.

@neilhimself I went to Harpur College while Art was a student there. Many of my college friends had parents who survived the Holocaust and even though they were 2nd generation, they still carried the trauma of their parents.
