Dies at 86.
I always love
the Times obituaries.
Here’s Mort Engelberg,
producer of
Smiley and the Bandit
friend and advance man
for Bill Clinton.
“Mr. Engleberg married
Helaine Blatt, the retired owner
of a Beverly Hills pawnshop.
In 2016, after the couple
had dated for 26 years.
An elusive bachelor,
Mr Engleberg finally married
Ms. Blatt on her 75th birthday
when he was 79.”
PS: Thank you for those of you who wrote asking where
to buy my new book, ALL OF US, and my poems, A beautiful independent
store in Catskill carries them all. Poetry too.

Flip side, the wedding announcements. Do they still print them? My favorite bride info is "Her father is Itzak Perlman, the violinist"..like only one existsl
I’m also a big fan of the Times obituaries. The first thing I do when I open up the Times is check to see which section the obits are in.
