From a gossip column in today's NY Times:
Life Used to Be So Hard Once upon a time in America, there was a golden
rock 'n' roll couple, JONI MITCHELL and GRAHAM NASH, who were the J.LO and
BEN of their time. They worked and lived together, he wrote a song about
the house they shared ("Our House") they broke up, she dated JAMES TAYLOR.
Last week, the Aperture Foundation awarded its Alfred Stieglitz Award for
creative amateur photography to Mr. Nash, and Ms. Mitchell presented the
award. In his acceptance speech, Mr. Nash, who grew up in England, spoke of
being given his first camera at age 10 by his father. He drew gasps from
the crowd when he said that the camera was stolen and that his father,
refusing to divulge the man who sold it to him, went to jail.
"In a way, I'm living for my dad," Mr. Nash said later. "When Crosby,
Stills, Nash & Young played Wembley Stadium, in 1974, the first thing I did
was kick a ball on the field. His biggest ambition was to go from
Manchester to London to watch the Cup finals, and he never made it. I put
my mother in the royal box and went down on the field, kicking a ball
around for my dad."
