Bruce  Duff ie  Interviews

 

The following is a list of the people I have interviewed.  <<<NOTE: The dates and indications listed here are the usage, not when the conversations took place.>>>  The names are not in alphabetical order.  There is a summary of symbols and abbreviations at the end, following the last entry.


When posting interviews, I try to send the link to my guest, or their family, or their agent.  With this message goes permission to use the link in any way they choose - which includes posting on their own website.  Some post the link, and a few reproduce the interview in part or its entirety.  Where it is known to me, I have mentioned this below.  I have also noted where permission has been granted to others to use the material in books, dissertations, publications, presentations, videos, etc.  There are many other instances where these interviews have been cited in books, articles, etc, and that pleases me.  There are also a few instances where I have been informed that an interview has been reproduced without my knowledge or permission... (!)
