In Reply to: It is unfortunate to pair Stern and Allen. Sleeping with one's stepdaughter and then posted by tinear on July 11, 2014 at 15:58:34:
Surely you can see the larger point I was making. An artist may have been a pedophile, or maybe a shoplifter, con man, drunk or drug addict. I'm a lawyer, but I'm not the attorney, judge or jury for Woody Allen or Isaac Stern. There is not much point in my putting either of them on trial. To the extent their lives shed light on their art, I'm interested. Otherwise, I'm less so.
