I reply:
Actually, Swirsky's brother David is a friend of mine. Seth, whom I don't
know, was propelled to the top of the songwriting biz by the success of the
Taylor Dayne singles he wrote, which included "Tell it to My Heart." I'm
sure you all remember that. He might have written that Michael Bolton song
"Love is a Wonderful Thing"; it's all a blur to me now, but he's written for
a lot big hit artists.
And the books he's compiled are letters about baseball, not only from
baseball players, but also from other notable people like the first
President Bush.
