B H Friedman was a friend of Morton Feldman in the later years of his life. He has written biographies on Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner and Gertrude Vanderbilt.

"What was great about the fifties is that for one brief moment - maybe, say, six weeks - nobody understood art. That's why it all happened." - Morton Feldman; "Like the artists involved in the new American painting, he was pursuing a personal search for expression which could not be limited by any system. His music sets in motion a spiritual life which is rare in any period and especially so in ours." - Frank O'Hara"
