A story about Frank Miller
For a year or two (?), Frank lived in Charlottesville Virginia with his wife, artist Lynn Varley. I met them at a local watering hole where I frequently ate lunch. One day, a newly printed copy of 300 Spartans circulated at the bar and we started talking. I was lucky to see them occasionally—friendly, fun people. They moved back to NYC to rekindle their energy.
