Remembering Gore Vidal: playwright, novelist, essayist, critic -- and longtime advisor to The Library of America http://blog.loa.org/2012/08/remembering-gore-vidal-playwright.html?spref=tw 
 
 
I have heard, no proof, no sourcing, so delete now if you want, that one reason TRP 
may not be in or even in a schedule to be in the Library of America was Gore
