We are especially extra super wildly excited about Dolphus Stroud’s unpublished memoir in the Papers. It’s riveting, witty, and devastating. It covers his childhood in Colorado Springs, a stint as a busboy at the Fred Harvey Lunch Room in Chicago’s Union Station, a run (so to speak) at the Olympics, and a Colorado College education. You can read a transcription of it here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
