Ms. Lopez Mr. Lamb certainly is an interesting fellow. I met him while I was walking from my neighborhood in Crystal City to the Pentagon City mall. We passed on the sidewalk, I was alone and he was with a quite tall and handsome lady. I said hello and told him that I am a big fan, especially of “Book Notes” (the show was close to it’s last with Mr. Lamb as the interviewer, IIRC). The rest of the interaction went something like this. Mr. Lamb: “Hi, I am Brian Lamb, what is your name and where are you from?” Me: “Steve, from Knoxville, TN.” Mr. Lamb: “Do you live here now or are you just visiting?” Me: “I have just been working here since 1994, but I refuse to live here. Yes, I do have a condo on Crystal Drive.” Mr. Lamb: [laughing] “Yes, I know what you mean.” The exchange was so quick that I did not notice until later that he was in full-bore interview mode the whole time, which is fine and quite interesting.
