| Leaving AI aside for the moment, why hasn't there been a published collection of Walter Kerr's reviews? No one else was so astute about actors, so passionate an assessor of everything he saw on stage, so joyous when joy was called for, so wounding when he was left wanting, so verbally adept. I want a Kerr collection to re-read and add to my bookshelf next to Max Beerbohm and Kenneth Tynan. Walter Kerr provided the best chronicle ever of New York theater from the 60s to the 90s. And boy, was he fun to read! | |

| In 1970, Simon and Schuster published Thirty Plays Hath November, a collection of his writings on theatre. It's hardly complete, covering 1963-1968, but it's something. | |
