Bruce's Journal

Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

World of Bob Dylan Conference in 2019 at the University of Tulsa

I just read in the Dylan fanzine Isis that there will be a Bob Dylan conference at the University of Tulsa starting on May 30, 2019. Since the announcement was brief I used my Google skills and found out more information at https://dylan.utulsa.edu/tu-announces-world-bob-dylan-conference-may-2019/ . It will gather scholars, critics, musicians, fans and experts from around the world for panels, lectures, exhibitions, performances and more. I think I will be going and will have to look at that website for registration information.

The article in Isis also states that the Bob Dylan Center will open in Tulsa in 2021. Currently, the archives are open only to serious Dylan scholars. I'll be there.
