I was going to interview Nathan Wasserberger for this blog on Wednesday, April 15th, 2009. He called a few days before that date to cancel the interview and told me that he wanted to postpone for a month our project because he had some unfinished business. He said he wanted to remain in touch and work it out.
It is now October 2009, and I am very disappointed that this much anticipated interview did not happen as planned. Nathan Wasserberger has not contacted me to pursue an interview and while we did speak today on the phone, it appears an interview will not happen.
With good intentions, I post these paintings done by Mr. Wasserberger. You can learn a bit more about Nathan Wasserberger here. Nathan told me "literature lasts forever." And so does the impeccable and magnificent beauty of his work. Many of Nathan Wasserberger's color plates of his paintings are in the permanent archives of American Art in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC.
"Sandra," 1957
"Old Man," 1964
"Girl in White Robe," 1982
Nathan Wasserberger is aware that his paintings appear at this blog.

So I guess you never met him? I called him in 2009 and spoke briefly on the phone.
I met him and spent some time with him and a group of his friends in Manhattan. We spoke a few times on the phone... but the interview never happened.
Thanks for the comment.
