Brian
Brian asked B.A. Shapiro:

I'm a little late to the game as far as finding The Art Forger and Goodreads. I absolutely loved The Art Forger. Just a wonderful story. Thank you for writing it. My question: Have you thought about revisiting the Claire Roth character? With all that she went through and learned, you could do some interesting things with her character.

Mark
Mark asked B.A. Shapiro:

I am enjoying the Muralist, and given the current brouhaha over refugees your book is amazingly timely. I was disturbed when you had FDR tell Eleanor that allowing Jews into the country was an indulgence of a Protestant nation (read Washington's letter to Touro synagogue for a counterargument). Do you have a source that attributes this opinion to FDR?
