Dear Art Gallery,
 
I wanted to contact Naoko Matsubara because I have a copy of a letter she wrote to my parents in 1968. She stayed with my family in Arizona for a few days back then. I just thought she might find this letter interesting. She gave my parents a copy of a book she had illustrated and I still have it.

The letter is at http://tomhascallcole.com/naokomatsubara.html

If you could kindly send that link to her along with my email address I would be most appreciative. I would love to hear if she remembers my parents and their friend the artist Leo Ryan.

My email is tom.cole@asu.edu

Yours truly,

Tom Cole

Dear Tom,

What a good letter you sent me. Yes, I remember your parents and the lovely desert your father took me. My goodness, I was young then.
I am still doing lots of work and have shows here and Japan. Please let me know about you and your parents.

warm regards,

Naoko
