Dan Wakefield 1932-2024


Recommended Posts

Indiana writer Dan Wakefield, author of the best-selling 1970 novel Going All the Way, as well as the cultural history New York In the Fifties and the spiritual memoir Returning, passed away Wednesday at 91. I was fortunate to cross paths with Dan a few times in the past 25 years or so, and he was a guest on my Night Lights show about the Five Spot. (Dan was a habitue in its late-1950s/early 60s heyday.) I’ve posted a remembrance of him on the Night Lights site:
