Dear Don,

Would you please forward the following inquiry for me

Dear Colleagues,
I am working with Marc Szeftel's archives and writing a book on Vladimir
Nabokov and Marc Szeftel. If you happen to have known both or either man
personally or heard any stories pertaining to their relationship or the
idea (apparently held by many at Cornell) that Szeftel served as the
prototype for Nabokov's Pnin, and if you are willing to share your
information with me, would you please drop me a note? I would appreciate
it very much.
