>> Nancy (something) was the editor or compiler of what went onto A & LD before it was bought out by LF.


Nancy Strickland, former Network TV reporter and associate of Dennis Loy Johnson, who was awarded the Pushcart Prize and a NEA fellowship in fiction writing. Johnson, of Melville House Press down on Pearl Street, published something Yost wrote pseudonymously. Pearl Street is near Battery Park and runs east-west, terminating in the east at Centre Street. At 60 Centre Street is the New York Supreme Court Building, which is featured on the TV fantasy show "Law and Order." Writer Fran Lebowitz plays a judge on that TV show, and once remarked, "Life is something to do when you can't get to sleep." She may or may not have borrowed that from something Heraclitus penned, that many people "are unaware of what they do when they are awake just as they are forgetful of what they do when they are asleep." How many people can the world support? Joel Cohen tries to answer this in _How Many People Can the Earth Support?_ (W.W. Norton & Co. 1996).
