The University of Kansas City Kansas City, Missouri Office of The President February 25, 1942 My dear Mr. Curry, Tom Benton has agreed to write a brief note, say from 500-1000 words, on Grant Wood for publication in the forthcoming issue of our University Review. I am wondering if we could persuade you to do the same. The local comment following Grant's death was a bit lukewarm about him both as a man and as a painter. Many of us here were indignant. I hope you will feel that circumstances will justify you in taking time to write this little note setting forth your feelings about him. We are going to press in about ten days, so the matter is rather urgent. Best wishes and personal regards, Sincerely yours, Clarence R. Decker Mr. John Steuart Curry Department of Art University of Wisconsin Madison, Wisconsin
