Rob Cosby, 1971- 1989. 20 years ago tonight I was in a car accident. I broke a vertebrae but Rob was killed. I was sitting 4 feet in front of him.
10 years ago I made a piece and used a Langston Hughes poem as part of the work. Curiously the Times has an article about the poem here.
I’m lucky to be here, and to know all of you. Thanks for giving me a place to note this occasion.
Wow, Lane, I had no idea. I’m sorry about Rob and glad to have gotten to know you.
Lane, that must have been so tough for you. You’re good to remember Rob, and I’m happy to know you too.
Intense, Lane. We’re lucky to have you.
