I love your list! The one that struck me the most was Caroline Kennedy. I don't care who her family is, that woman can think clearly and write well. I've passed on three of her books (
In Our Defense and
The Right to Privacy--written with Ellen Alderman--and
She Walks in Beauty--a poetry compilation) to many, many people.
Not sure who I would most like to hear from (aside from The Man King--lol--but he does that with every forward and afterward, so I guess I'm satisfied there). Maybe Bill Nye? Pope Francis? Putin is fascinating right now... Hm... You've given me something to ponder today
