Mencken, the Curmudgeon, was admired by The Round Table* at the Algonquin Hotel which met for lunch there 1919-1929. Their influence lasted decades in literature & theater.
My family moved to NYC in 1959 & dad lived at the Algonquin 6-weeks as we moved to join him. Their books were on the shelves at home then.
