This
is
Mike Brown
who was
my stepson
is not to be
confused
with
Coach of
the New York Knicks
_
___
_
The latter
is being paraded
in
New York City
tomorrow
because
the Knicks
are
World Champions
The other Mike Brown
may be anywhere
on this earth
—or elsewhere—
I was only
his stepfather
for three years
because his mother
was too smart
for it to last
any longer
________
______
___
BUT
a quick story
about
the young man
—visiting from Florida—
when this picture
was taken
We took him to
La Jolla Art Museum:
He ran across the lobby
shouting
"There's Robert!"
He was referring
not
to a human being
but to a piece of art
created by
At that time,
Mike Brown's
"job"
was being
a studio assistant
to Rauschenberg
Before the divorce
was finalized,
the last I heard
about her son,
Rauschenberg
was
interested in
Michael's
creative
hammering
of
copper plating
around existing
objects
