Thank you so much for your response. The meeting would not be important to someone studying the lives of the Gershwins. However, it is important to me because I am also interested in studying the WWII era, from a humanist point of view, not as political scientist, whatever. I am interested in learning why some individuals chose the right path, and their neighbors went down the wrong path. The advice here is to select a more current biography of Ira, so I will. I am also interested in his autobiography, even though I know that this information will not be in there.
