RE: Carl Sandburg and Lincoln
One thing I've noticed about Sandburg is that he seemed to enjoy being a celebrity-all the attention he got in his heyday. I don't think it was a bad thing-who wouldn't enjoy being so? But he wasn't arrogant about it. I'm remembering the photos, for instance, that were taken of him and Marilyn Monroe-I think he had meetings with her twice? Anyway, he obviously knew he had "arrived." Yet, he never lost touch with common folk-because deep inside he still felt he was a common folk.
