In 1985, the NBA held its first draft lottery ever in Madison Square Garden’s Felt Forum (now the Hulu Theater). Without hesitation, the Knicks picked Patrick Ewing of Georgetown as their No. 1 pick.

Peter, I learned recently that Woody Guthrie's second wife (and Arlo's mother) Marjorie was a principal dancer with Martha Graham from 1935 and teacher of Erick Hawkins and Merce Cunningham. Your mom must have known her?

Thanks Anne!
