Nigey Lennon remembers David Walley.
Anyone who knew David, or read his work, or picked his brain for editorial suggestions, or made even the most casual contact with him, generally found that they’d been changed, transformed by the contact. It was his peculiar gift, to question and, by questioning, to help people find answers.

I cannot say that I ‘knew’ David - tho we did correspond. He was - as they say - the real deal. I truly kind soul, who will be missed…
His contributions to ‘contemporary’ thought - i.e. mores, americanism, popular opinion and trends - was a wellspring for me; I’m better educated thanks to our relationship.
YOU ROCK, DAVID!
