Hi Barrett. I think Tim may have neglected to send this to both of us last month.
But, so, I'm deep into the story on the Wyly brothers that he mentioned to you, and I'm hoping to find some folks who know them personally or through business dealings or through charitable or art circles or, well, however.
I'd be willing to speak to those folks either on the record or not-for-attribution.
In any case, any chance you can point me in the direction of such sources?
Also, The Met in 1998? I'm afraid I don't recall who you worked with. You were an editorial intern, maybe? Kelley Beirne, perhaps, was your "boss"? Either way, from Tim's story on you, it appears you've gone on to much bigger things than weekly maga-papering.

Joe, meet Barrett (again). Barrett was an intern at the Met in 1998. Now he's a -- well, he's a former journalist.
Barrett, Joe is the guy writing about the Wylys.
You kids play nice.
