Your Letters
POV
Go Arts
Kirsten Jones Neff, thank you so much for the
wonderful article you wrote from our interview
(Conversation, August). You deciphered the
salient points from our conversation and told
the story the way it should be told. I have been
interviewed many times for many articles and
this is by far my favorite, mainly because you
captured who I am and what I am trying to do
in a very real and authentic way. So, thank you
for what you do and for your support of the arts.

The photo is fun (“Take the Beach Home,”
Currents, August), but I hope you didn’t
mean for it to represent any species found
in California. That species, with the holes
through it, occurs in Florida, nowhere near
Marin. Anyone trying to find one that looks
like that here is going to be disappointed.
I don’t think anyone in my business would
have said it is perfectly OK to take home
sand dollars. Without a special collecting
permit, nothing is OK to take home from
public parklands, whether or not it is dead
on the beach. Sand dollars do eventually
crumble into sand, but sand is also not supposed to be removed from public parklands.

“Marin’s Summer of Love” (June) was a good
article written by Michael Shapiro. The caption
for the photo of Jerry Garcia and Jack Casady
shows a date of 1966. I knew that was not Jerry
in ’ 66, so I researched. It was a jam concert that
took place at that location on July 28, 1968, and
included Mickey Hart. DAN YU TER, VIA EMAIL

we mislabeled two stores. The correct names:
Lindisima Marin and Abode Marin.
