He is best remembered for Butterfield 8, Pal Joey, A Rage to Live, The Doctor's Son and The Horse Knows the Way. M. 27pg. 8 ½" x 11". No date (circa 1968). No place. A photocopied typed manuscript of John O'Hara's 1968 short story "The Sun Room." It has been extensively marked up and edited. This came from the papers of noted author and editor, James T.
