A Conversation with John Logan

JOHN LOGAN GREETED U S at the front door of the home of Phyllis Thompson, where he was a guest. Logan was in Honolulu for several readings, and to celebrate his being awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. He knows Honolulu well, having recently been Visiting Writer at the University of Hawaii and having begun his teaching career at Honolulu's Iolani School right after the end of World War II. In 1955 the first of his six books of poetry was published. He continues to edit Choice, a magazine of poetry and graphics. As of this writing, he is living and writing in San Francisco, in the neighborhood of most of his nine children.
