RP: Demanding That John Uecker CONFESS (or adequately explain his behaviors and words), to the MURDER of Tennessee Williams!!!

RE-PRINTED from herehttp://theweathercontinues.blogspot.mx/2014/09/demanding-that-john-uecker-confess-or.html






Congratulate the ECSTATIC COUPLEReportTyler Perry Is Expecting His First Child!!!


If Barack Obama can impregnate a woman -- so can Tyler Perry, no???


My blog report of meeting Tyler Perry's college teacher who produced his FIRST EVER PLAY. I met her in a FISH MARKET in Wilmington, NChttp://scottkenan.blogspot.mx/2011/06/this-just-in-from-rio-amazonia.html



Also, this woman confirmed that Tyler Perry is TOTALLY GAY.

>>> MY EMAIL JUST SENT TO JOHN UECKER:




Thomas Keith, unknown, Don Weise


I was never paid a penny of my advance, due on signing, which was early August 2009. My contract was cancelled in January 2010. Thomas Keith edited it for Don Weise, and NO ONE ELSE was paid, including the cover designer who allows me to use the image -- but was Thomas Keith PAID???


Thomas has never told me.








NOTE: I forgot to mention to John that two days ago, I accidentally chanced on ONE PLACE I had hidden so many files and emails from the late oughts into 2012, including not only our old emails, but ALSO my every draft of my book (twelve major ones total), that Don Weise, then Publisher of Alyson Books, now of http://www.magnusbooks.com/, had said I MUST destroy and only save ONE COPY of my manuscript of my WALKING ON GLASS: A MEMOIR OF THE LATER DAYS OF TENNESSEE WILLIAMS on my computer, claiming that to save anything else was a violation of writer's ethics -- something I found LAUGHABLE, so HID all that stuff instead.

When I returned from New York City, where I delivered my final draft to him in his offices and attended Mark Beard's Christmas Party, December 6, 2009, I found that one file I was to save COMPLETELY OBLITERATED on my computer. The name was there, but it opened to a small amount of gibberish, only.

Two months earlier, I sent Don about a dozen photos and scan-able mementos to be included -- and Don said he had been through them to sort. A month after Weise cancelled the contract to publish me in hard-cover, he mailed me those photos -- and the ones I had actually sealed in envelopes were never opened by him.

I have ALL THE PROOF that Alyson Books NEVER intended to publish my book.




Hi John,

I hope you are doing well, and I am not upset with you -- whether you actually murdered Tennessee Williams or not (if you DID murder him, it would have been a "mercy killing" by moral standards -- although not by LEGAL standards). The evidence is not completely clear to me about that, and I imagine you can understand that I would like to know the TRUTH about how my friend and former employer died.

Looking at Lahr's bio, I see that he reports that police arrived at 12:40 PM (p. 583), but that you had opened the door to Tennessee's room, finding him dead, at 10:30 AM -- p. 586, far enough later in the book for readers not to notice that two-hour-and-ten-minute difference, so it LOOKS deliberate on Lahr's part to help obscure a lot of lies. And Lahr never really explains the reason for this.  

I know SOME of what happened in the meantime -- NYC Police could not have been THAT slow -- but Vassilis Voglis told me when I was up for the memorial service in March, that you had called him in the morning (and the impression was that it was earlier than 10:30, but I'm not certain of that). In Atlanta, where I had moved that very month due to a transfer by Magic Pan Restaurants, I had just come out of the shower to prepare for a mid-shift of restaurant management, which was from noon to 8:00 PM, and right before leaving for work was when I caught the BREAKING NEWS of Tennessee Williams' death on CNN.

Isn't it ODD that they broke the news WELL BEFORE the police arrived??? Or maybe my memory has been flawed all these years and I was preparing for a dinner shift, starting at 3:00 PM. I think that unlikely, as I put on a fresh pot of coffee before hitting the shower -- and I would not have bothered doing that so late in the day. I AM certain that I got up late that day, due to carousing the night before, but I have never slept into the afternoon -- at least not since my early 20s.

Vassilis told me that he had come right over when you called, taking half an hour and showing up in running clothes, finding you in a very agitated state (which would be NORMAL), and after some conversation, you called the police. You certainly had plenty of time to stage anything -- like positioning pills -- before Vassilis arrived. He never mentioned a THING to me or the other five to seven people he had over (including Jane Smith and some theater luminaries whom I did not before know and whose names and identities I forget -- Broadway producers and such), whom he had over for dinner that night. I know it was that night because Vassilis left to prepare it after we ate after the Memorial -- at Sardi's -- and Jane Smith, Maria St. Just, her daughter Pulcharia, (as I remember, we were five in a cab including our driver), and I went to Andy Warhol's OLD Factory first -- then Warhol gave us a tour of the NEW Factory too, Maria's son-in-law-to-be being Warhol's architect of the New Factory.

Also of interest about that are two things: Maureen Stapleton had come to the window of our cab to say goodbye, and was obviously drunk (her usual condition in those days). Maria, wanting to dismiss me, screamed at me to escort her home after she had left, but she had disappeared into the crowd and even 6' 11" me could not spot her -- and was able to rejoin them before the cab pulled away. When John Lahr read my memoir, he especially got a kick out of my capturing Maria's "stentorian ways".

Continuing on the subject of my memoir, you had insisted on re-writing the section on Tennessee's Death in my book, and I have preserved your self-serving, legally cagy words, which I will be HAPPY to show to prosecutors and your and Sewanee's defense, when we get to TRIALS, if Sewanee, the Episcopal Church, and allies cannot find a way to make settlement with me first. And in my memoir, you made a BIG POINT that Tennessee Williams had always encouraged you and James Purdy in his writing. I originally left that as you wrote it, but because in all the time I spent at Tennessee's side and he might have mentioned Purdy once or twice -- he never seemed all THAT impressed with the man's work, I later took it out.

Now, I don't remember when you, the Marlon-Brando-physiqued, moody (and HOT), brooder in 1982 when I met you, became James Purdy's literary assistant, but I don't think it was before then or you would have said more about it. But you really WERE that, and in fact inherited Purdy's ENTIRE estate, which I assume you completed your legal battles with Purdy's family who claimed foul play and sued you. There was quite a bit about them suing you and tying up the estate in the press a couple of years ago when I first found it -- but absolutely NOTHING I can google up now. My point is that I do not for one second believe that Tennessee would have made a shrine to Purdy on his night table, as you have claimed to Lahr -- just more profit for you if it helps sell Purdy's work, now.

And it was YOU who told me how Thomas Keith had told you while riding the train to Provincetown for the Festival in 2009 or the year before, that Sewanee had all the goods on Lahr to blackmail him into telling it THEIR WAY.

And it was YOU who told me that Schuyler "Skye" Wyatt also told you -- like he did me -- that a high-placed legislator, Republican, in the Tennessee State Legislature had paid both Skye and Gary Tucker's bills for their Victorian mansion on High Street in Atlanta where they lived for years after Tennessee's death, but also Skye's luxury condo, new roadster, and pocket money that he freely spent, although only a PART-TIME flunky for a caterer in Chattanooga, TN, where he moved after Gary's death in December 1989.

I'd also like to know why you told me NOT to expect producer Scott Rudin to be interested in my manuscript after my agent Cynthia Zigmund, now of Second City Publishing Services, had sent Rudin my manuscript at his request. As you should recall, you told me that he had been your CLASSMATE and BEST FRIEND in high school, but research shows him to be EIGHT years older than you. You claimed he was such a good friend that he had nursed you when your were very ill of AIDS, and no one else would visit, but that you and he had agreed to use YOUR materials for him to do a feature film on Williams, so you were CERTAIN he would have nothing to do with my manuscript (he didn't -- but even after an acrimonious break up of Cynthia and me, she was kind enough to spell out and confirm the details -- including that she could get no response from him in follow-up emails. And Rudin's assistant, after a very friendly phone call to him, did NOT respond to my email which I published on blog. http://scottkenan.blogspot.mx/2011/12/letter-to-scott-rudins-personal.html

But then, I have another question about John Lahr's reporting. Obviously, as shown in the notes, Lyle Leverich interviewed you a couple of times in the mid-1980s, then Lahr in both 2010 and 2011. I assume Lahr did not speak with you later. Nevertheless, given Vassilis Voglis' large place in Tennessee's life the last at least more than five years -- and he was IN THE HOTEL ROOM with you for about an hour (Vassilis's claim to me), before you called the cops, WHY doesn't Lahr make more of that -- he doesn't even give Vassilis's full name (which most of us called him), but just "Vass"???

And Mark Beard, the now famous painter, was Vassilis' boyfriend back then. I only learned in 2009 (from Mark, who was sensitive about what I had put in my memoir), that that was a SECRET -- it was THE STORY to Tennessee's friends -- but was "publicly" the boyfriend of Georg Osterman of the Ridiculous Theater Company, with whom he then shared an apartment. You see, Vassilis had inherited his former male lover's estate -- and his lover had been the son of the President of the New York Stock Exchange -- so it had been sizable. Partly, he used that to put Mark through Art school -- since Mark had been disinherited by his prominent Mormon family.

Mark Beard is alive and well and living in Manhattan -- but nobody interviewed him, and while not THERE the morning after Tennessee died, Vassilis had told him MUCH MORE about what happened that morning than he ever told me. And in posting Mark's artwork that he said I could have rights to use in my memoir, you will see that Tennessee had crab lice -- and that seemed so scandalous back at that time, that no one ever mentioned it, otherwise




BUT I DID use that bit of info (Vassilis and Mark both telling me it in 1983), when I first called Thomas S. Kenan III in 1990, to ask him about the results of the THIRD autopsy of Mary Lily (Kenan) Flagler, Bingham (ADDED: declared by the NEW YORK TIMES to be the "wealthiest woman on earth" from when she inherited Henry Flagler's estate in 1913, until she died when her second husband murdered her in 1917). was also killed over a codicil to her will -- saying I would disclose a secret about Tennessee's death if he would tell me the results of the autopsy, which in a 1989 60 MINUTES segment ON that autopsy, Tom had refused to tell -- this in early 1990 -- and he REFUSED to tell me so I didn't tell him about the crabs.

And when we first re-met in 2009, you told me that Sewanee had ALREADY hired you to collate and FINISH Tennessee's last full-length play, IN MASKS OUTRAGEOUS AND AUSTERE, and that you had been instructed to WRITE OUT the character Mac (a tall, silent, observing black guy -- said virtually by all to be based on me), because he, in YOUR words, "caused too much pandemonium" -- I remember that quote precisely. But after I showed up on the scene after so many years, Sewanee gave someone else the project and the play opened disastrously off-off-Broadway in 2012.

Additionally, the Wikipedia page for the play (OWNED -- or originated by you, according to Wikipedia), had nearly all mentions of my name removed, and the remaining one -- if still there -- was added to with lies, putting words in MY mouth that had come out of YOUR MOUTH. Tennessee's friend Dr. Larry Myers, you and I are also all quoted in a New York Post article from 2010, that was changed online later to put the comment about WHO claimed the bottle-cap-choking cause of death, was changed from being a quote of YOU to a comment by ME. The Murdock/CIA-owned New York Post article is now gone, but it's many-times-changed content survives here: http://pagesix.com/2010/02/15/tennessee-williams-death-myth/.

In 2010, I was mentioned in FIVE Wikipedia pages on Tennessee Williams, but today, I see I am only in ONE now, here -- and AGAIN, reproducing that LIE that was a quote from YOU, originally, and since you told me YOU told the coroner to say it was the bottle cap, I would never have said that at all!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_Williams.

And WHY does Lahr make NO MENTION of IN MASKS OUTRAGEOUS AND AUSTERE??? Or under its earlier name, GIDEONS POINT???

I hope you will be able to answer my questions about your OWN behavior -- you are not responsible for Mr. Lahr's -- ASAP. Now I need to get this to the key people at the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Festival, with luck, before their KICK-OFF dinner tonight.
