Dear Mike,

Kindly give the bearer, my secretary, the scripts of THE BARRIER
which you told me I might have. By the way, my new agent, since
Lieber's illness, is Mrs. Leah Salisbury whose office is in your
building.

I'm off to Georgia.

September 30, 1956

Dear Mike:

I was happy to have your note and to know that you found my
gospel play, TAMBOURINES TO GLORY of interest. I would be
delighted to meet you any late afternoon or evening that you
would care to name to talk about it. In case you don't still
have my phone number at hand, it is LE 4 - 2952 - private, so
kindly do not give it out.

Incidentally I have just been contracted to act as master of
ceremonies for Mahalia Jackson's gospel song concert at Hunter
College in February. You may have heard and seen her on TV
as she both opened and closed the Democratic Convention in
Chicago, aside from being on the Ed Sullivan show and others.
If you are not familiar with gospel music - as distinguished
from the older spirituals and jubilees - I would be happy to
lend you some interesting recordings that I have.

It has occurred to me that if you are still casting GODOT,
it may not have occurred to you that Avon Long who played
SPORTING LIFE in the Cheryl Crawford production of PORGY AND
BESS might be good for the character of the one who takes so
much beating. Avon Long was also in the Eartha Kitt show,
MRS. PATTERSON, so you may be familiar with his work.

All good wishes to you, as ever,

Mr. Michael Myerberg
