Christianson</a>. Double oops! I did my above comment bass-ackwards by writing it BEFORE reading the NY Times obituary for Mr. Haas, which revealed he died far too young, at 51, in the fall of '77, just half a year after I learned the truth about his John Benteen identity. Thus I had nothing to regret about not lobbying for his inclusion at future writers conferences, since he wouldn't be able to participate anyway. Also, the book title I singled out as noteworthy under Haas's own name is correctly "Daisy Canfield": my mistaken daisy was "Daisy Kenyon," a '40s Elizabeth Janeway novel better known (but mostly forgotten)as the Otto Preminger movie w/ Joan Crawford. BTW does anyone know if Ben Haas served in WW II?]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In reply to <a href="http://www.howardandrewjones.com/uncategorized/celebrating-the-work-of-ben-haas#comment-1349789">Randy B.
