Quotes by Sheryl Kaskowitz (?)

“I am on the verge all the time of being set at a long-winded piece of bibliographic research work that I don’t want to do—my particular skill being with people first & books second.”
― Sheryl Kaskowitz, A Chance to Harmonize: How FDR's Hidden Music Unit Sought to Save America from the Great Depression—One Song at a Time
