TLS, one page, 7 x 9, personal letterhead, October 22, 1987. Simon writes to George Burns, in part: “I want to thank you so much for your generous assistance in helping to get me into Hillcrest. A reccommendation [sic] from you is something I’ll always be proud of. I’m not so certain about my character but I sure have good friends…I wanted to get back to golf again, which is why I applied for membership to Hillcrest. I tried playing three rounds of golf since. Each time my back went out so badly, I had to write my plays standing over a refrigerator like Thomas Wolfe. Alas, golf and I are no longer compatible and I thought…I’d relinquish my spot…and return to writing my plays sitting in a chair again. I’m sorry if I put you to any trouble but I’m not so sure I’d be a good member anyway. I don’t play cards and I stopped eating bagels, cream cheese and Nova Scotia. I do, however, intend to remain a good Jew…unless, of course, it hurts my back.” In fine condition, with some light creasing.
