Irving Howe (June 11, 1920 – May 5, 1993) was an American literary and social critic and a prominent figure of the Democratic Socialists of America.

Biography[link]

Early years[link]

Howe was born as Irving Horenstein in The Bronx, New York, as a son of Jewish immigrants from Bukovina who ran a small grocery store that went out of business during the Great Depression.

Howe attended City College (CCNY) and graduated in 1940,^[1] alongside Daniel Bell and Irving Kristol. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II. Upon his return, he began writing literary and cultural criticism for the influential Partisan Review and became a frequent essayist for Commentary, Politics, The Nation, The New Republic, and The New York Review of Books. In 1954, Howe helped found the intellectual quarterly Dissent, which he edited until his death in 1993.^[2] In the 1950s Howe taught English and Yiddish literature at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA. He used the Howe and Greenberg Treasury of Yiddish Stories as the text for a course on the Yiddish story at a time when few were spreading knowledge or appreciation of these works in American colleges and universities.

Political career[link]

Since his CCNY days, Howe was committed to left-wing politics. He was a member of the Young People's Socialist League and then Max Shachtman's Workers Party. He left this movement in the early 1950s. At the request of his friend Michael Harrington, he helped co-found the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee in the early 1970s. DSOC merged into the Democratic Socialists of America in 1982, with Howe as a vice-chair. He was a vociferous opponent of both Soviet totalitarianism and McCarthyism, called into question standard Marxist doctrine, and came into conflict with the New Left after criticizing their unmitigated radicalism. Later in life, his politics gravitated toward more pragmatic democratic socialism and foreign policy, a position still represented in the idiosyncratic political and social arguments of Dissent.

Known for literary criticism as well social and political activism, Howe wrote studies on Thomas Hardy, William Faulkner, politics and the novel, and a history of Eastern European Jews in America entitled World of Our Fathers which won the 1971 National Book Award in History.^[3] He also edited and translated many Yiddish stories, and commissioned the first English translation of Isaac Bashevis Singer for the Partisan Review.^[4] He also wrote A Margin of Hope, his autobiography, and Socialism and America.

Death and legacy[link]

He died on May 5, 1993 in New York. According to the Sinai Hospital, the cause of death was cardiovascular disease.^[5]

Howe had two children, Nina and the late Nicholas, with his second wife, Thalia Phillies. Howe also had two grandchildren, Anastasia and Nicholas Howe Bukowski.^{[citation needed]}

Luke Ford
Luke Ford, circa 2000
Born	(1966-05-28) 28 May 1966 (age 46) Kurri Kurri, New South Wales, Australia
Residence	United States
Nationality	American
Occupation	Writer
Religion	Judaism

Luke Ford (born 28 May 1966, in Kurri Kurri, New South Wales, Australia) is an American writer, blogger, and former pornography gossip columnist known for his disclosures and traditionalist Jewish religious views.^[1]

Personal[link]

Ford moved to California in 1977. His father, Desmond Ford, was a noted Seventh-day Adventist theologian, and was the center of a theological controversy in the late 1970s and '80s. His mother, Gwen Ford, died of bone cancer in March 1970, when Ford was three years old.

After leaving the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Ford explored atheism. Ford states that he was converted through the Los Angeles Beis Din.^[2] Ford says he observes the Jewish Sabbath, attends synagogue regularly, and keeps kosher. He has been asked to leave at least two different congregations.^[3] Ford wrote about his religious ostracism in XXX-Communicated: A Rebel Without a Shul.

Ford has suffered from chronic fatigue syndrome, which kept him bedridden for a time in his 20s.^[4]

Professional[link]

Ford studied economics at UCLA but did not graduate. Instead, he worked as an investigative journalist for southern California newspapers and at a radio station. In 1995, he became intrigued with the lack of journalistic coverage of the pornography industry, and started to write a book, which would become A History of X.

In January 1996, after researching porn for a year, Ford wrote, produced, directed and acted in What Women Want, a pornographic video (not related to the Mel Gibson movie of the same name). It was not a success. Ford is credited as "Dick Dundee".^[5]

In 1997, Ford started his pornography gossip website, LukeFord.com. It was criticized for being badly organized, but contained a large amount of information; Ford would take a tape recorder nearly wherever he went, and transcribed many conversations.

Ford exposed a 1998 HIV outbreak which infected an indeterminate number of actors (including Tricia Devereaux, Brooke Ashley and Kimberly Jade) who had been working with actor Marc Wallice.^[4] Ashley eventually sued Wallice, claiming that she had been infected on the set of The World's Biggest Anal Gangbang.

Discretion has never been a Ford strong suit. In his own words "I'm not a businessman. I'm not a conventional journalist. I'm a story teller/entertainer/lunatic."^[6] Porn stars such as Asia Carrera and Brandy Alexandre have criticized errors and inaccuracy on his site. But its impact was undeniable, and he was referred to as the Matt Drudge of porn.^[4]

Ford was sued for defamation multiple times by people in the porn industry, including by RJB Telecom, whom he (as well as the Federal Trade Commission) accused of dishonesty; Christi Lake, whom he mislabeled in a bestiality photo; and Laurie Holmes (widow of John Holmes), for accusations of prostitution on the set. Ford has said that he has been sued five times to date: one suit was dropped, another was thrown out, another was settled when his insurance company paid $100,000, and the last two were settled when he removed some of his statements without making a retraction.^[7] Wired magazine called him "The Most Hated Man in Web Porn".^[6] He was even physically assaulted by Mike Albo, an editor for Hustler.^[8]

In August 2001, after urgings of his rabbi, Ford sold his main website, lukeford.com^[9] to Netvideogirls.com for $25,000, and created lukeford.net,^[10] which avoided pornography, and focused more on Jewish issues. One year later, after nearly going broke, he returned to his pornographic roots by starting lukeisback.com^[11] with many of his old archives.^[12] On 23 October 2007, Ford announced he had sold lukeisback.com and its contents for an undisclosed sum to an undisclosed party.^[13] "Any writing I do on the porn industry from now on will be for publications with no porn advertising," Ford said. Those owners (whose names have not been divulged) ran the site until June 2008 but walked away from the site saying that writing the site was too much work for the money earned.^[14] It was sold a second time, with the new owner being long-time industry observer Cindy Loftus.^[15]

AVN Hall of Famer Bill Margold has said that "Luke Ford is exactly what we deserve... Luke's not really a blogger as much as is an internet journalist".^[12]

James Howe (born August 2, 1946, Oneida, New York) is the American author of over 80 juvenile and young adult books, including the Bunnicula series, about a vampire rabbit that sucks the juice out of vegetables.

Biography[link]

At the age of nine or ten, Howe wrote a play based on the "Blondie" comic strip as well as a variety of short stories and self-published newspapers, his favorite being "the Gory Gazette," made for a self-founded club: Vampire Legion.^[1]

Howe would continue to write plays during his theater studies at Boston University, and eventually move to New York City to pursue a career as an actor and model while directing plays and working as a literary agent.

In the mid-1970s, Howe's mother-in-law encouraged him and his wife, Deborah Howe, to create a children's story based on a character the two had created while watching older Dracula movies, which at the time were played late at night on TV in the 1970s.^[2] With his wife, he created Bunnicula: A Rabbit Tale of Mystery, about a pet rabbit suspected of being a vampire. The book would go on to win more than ten Children's Choice awards, including the Dorothy Canfield Fisher Award and the Nene Award, and eventually evolve into a series. Shortly after Bunnicula was published Deborah fell victim to cancer and died, inspiring the creation of The Hospital Book.^[3]

After the death of his first wife, Howe remarried and fathered a daughter, Zoey.^[4] Howe and his second wife divorced after Howe came out as gay.^[5]

In 1981, Howe began writing full-time. In addition to the Bunnicula series, Howe has written picture books, children's novels, nonfiction, adaptations of classic stories, and screenplays for movies and television. Over ten years ago, he published his first two young adult novels, The Watcher and The Misfits.^[6] The Misfits, itself inspired by his daughter Zoey's difficult experiences in middle school, was the inspiration behind GLSEN's annual No Name-Calling Week.^[7]

In 2007, James Howe was the recipient of The E.B. White Read Aloud Award for Picture Books for his book Houndsley and Catina, illustrated by Marie-Louise Gay, and published by Candlewick Press.

On September 17th, 2011, Howe married Mark Davis, a partner in the New York law firm Engel and Davis, at a home in Dorset, Vermont.^[8]

Andrew Howe (born 12 May 1985) is an Italian athlete who specializes in the long jump. He won this event as well as the 200 metres at the 2004 World Junior Championships. He was successful at senior level at a young age, winning a long jump bronze at the 2006 IAAF World Indoor Championships before becoming the European Champion later that year. In 2007 he become the European Indoor Champion and won the silver medal at the 2007 World Championships in Athletics.

A combination of injuries ruled him out for most of the 2008 and 2009 seasons. He returned to action in 2010 and became the Italian champion, representing his country at the 2010 European Athletics Championships.

Career[link]

Howe was born in Los Angeles, United States, to Renée Felton, an American hurdler who is a former United States Junior College National Record in the 100 meter hurdles and an avid participant of long distance amateur sports such as the Ironman triathlon. In 1992, Andrew moved to Rieti, Italy with her after she married to Italian, Ugo Besozzi.

His international breakthrough came at the 2006 World Indoor Championships, where he finished third. Later the same year he won the gold medal at the European Championships.

In the 2007 European Athletics Indoor Championships, he won gold with a fifth round leap of 8.30, after trailing Greek competitor, and eventual silver medalist, Loúis Tsátoumas in the first four jumps.

In the 2007 World Championships, he won the silver medal with a sixth jump of 8.47, achieving the Italian national record and his personal best. He was only surpassed by Irving Saladino at his last jump with 8.57 m. He brought the year to a close with a win at the 2007 IAAF World Athletics Final, becoming the first Italian to win at the competition and only the second to win an event at an IAAF season-end contest. He was given the first European Athletics Rising Star Award in recognition of his achievements that season.^[1]

Following this, his 2008 season was blighted by a shoulder injury and then hamstring problems,^[2] and he did not make it past the qualifiers of the long jump at the 2008 Summer Olympics. The next season held further physical problems for the Italian and surgery on his Achilles tendon ruled him out for the year.

He returned to action in July 2010 with a win in the long jump at the Italian Athletics Championships.^[3] He attempted to defend his continental title at the 2010 European Athletics Championships, but his jump of 8.12 m brought him fifth place and Christian Reif succeeded him to the European title.^[4] Nearing the end of the season, Howe ran in the 200 m at the Notturna di Milano – marking a return to an event in which he had competed sparely. In a return to form, he won the race and although he eased up in the final metres he recorded a time of 20.30 seconds – two hundredths away from his long-standing personal best.^[5]

He completed his winter training in Qatar and at the University of California, Los Angeles. At the start of the outdoor season he ran a personal best and European-leading time of 45.70 seconds over 400 metres and then took a surprise win over 200 m at the Golden Gala in Rome with a run of 20.31 seconds (also a season's best for Europe).^[6][7]
