Collier is regarded as a member of the party faction that has been headed by U.S. Chief Justice Earl Warren and U.S. Senator William Knowland. Since there...
Robert O. Blechman, who has drawn the pictures and adapted the legend, is 23, a Jew, a private in the U.S. Signal Corps, and a graduate (last year) of Oberlin College. His squiggly, deceptively childlike drawings have appeared in such magazines as Glamour, Charm, Mademoiselle, Collier's and Theatre Arts. But his greatest pleasure since he was a boy has been "drawing books" and circulating them among his family and friends. The Juggler of Our Lady was a logical result...
