Misc. on Pynchon's publishers

I cannot find the thread, nor the email addressed to me and cannot bring up the sender's email address on the Ipad auto address----Ipads are peculiar in the automatic address they bring up for you.......but anyway, wanted to answer...

Pynchon was 'working directly with" Michael Nauman at Holt...but he would have been then since
Nauman was the Publisher and the book was in those stages, beyond editorial...
