Robert Caro, who has spent the past 37 years, writing his multi-volume biography of Lyndon Johnson, tells Dave Davies about how Johnson was a “great reader of men”:

When a new aide, a young aide [arrived] … he’d tell them how to talk to someone. He’d say, ‘Watch their eyes. Watch their hands. What they’re telling you with their eyes or their hands is more important than what they’re telling you with their mouth.’ He used to say, ‘Never let a conversation end because there’s always something that the man doesn’t want to tell you and the longer a conversation goes on, the easier it is for you to figure out what it is he doesn’t want to tell you.’ He had a unique ability to know what a man really wanted, what a man really was afraid of and of playing on those fears and those desires.”

countryandwestern:

Americana Award Nominees were announced today.

The ceremony’s not until September so these albums will hardly seem fresh by that point*, but a good crop nevertheless. Good year to be a duo.

*Seems the whole shebang could use more tightening. Maybe a ceremony twice a year with 4-week voting time and the awards a couple weeks later. I mean, O Be Joyful came out in July 2012. That’s ancient history in these times. And to call them emerging is kinda offbase. Emerging to whom, I would ask.

Lyndon Johnson biographer Robert Caro tells Dave Davies about how how civil rights leaders of the era regarded Johnson:

They come in suspicious, you know. Johnson always wanted to meet with people one-on-one. … A friend of his said, ‘One-on-one he’s the greatest salesman who ever lived.’ So a group of civil rights leaders — Martin Luther King, Roy Wilkins, James Farmer — want to meet with him. One of his secretaries says, ‘Should I schedule them as a group?’ And he says to her, ‘No, one at a time,’ and each one has the same reaction. … I think it’s Roy Qilkins who says this: that ‘[I] went in there suspicious and then Johnson pulled up almost knee-to-knee me and leaned into my face and told me how much he wanted civil rights and for the first time I had real hope that this bill was going to pass.’”

Another old film scan. This shot is a black and white shot from an old church I used to pass on a regular basis. Not sure if it was the position of the light, the weathered brick, but I always seemed to “need” to take a shot when I passed by.

subliminous:

Another very recent tear sheet. I drove up to Connecticut to shoot this man for Esquire Magazine a few weeks ago. As much as I loved shooting for Esquire again, and a portrait feature at that, I was in numb disbelief that this story could have happened to another human being. Perhaps not the most appropriate story to read on a sunny spring day. But if you have to – and I think you should:

http://www.esquire.com/features/william-petit-murders-revisited-0513

But always best to pick up a real copy; of course, for the pictures too. It’s out now in Esquire’s May issue.

Thank you Bill and Christine.

And thank you Michael for this incredible assignment.
