...snowy Tuesday in March, White meets a visitor at the Providence railroad station. "Both Diane Von Furstenberg's daughter Tatiana and Jane Fonda's daughter Vanessa Vadim are in my writing class, and Ann Charters -- do you know who she is? -- she wrote a biography on Kerouac -- is in my Genet class," White says breathlessly.
