“‘Mailer on Picasso’ an Absorbing Program.” Article by Frazier Moore. AP wire story, 28 February. Report on a TV interview Mailer did with Melvyn Bragg on Picasso and television. He says that Picasso was “far and away the greatest artist of the 20th century.” Of TV, he says: “I have a kind of negative respect for television.
