I don’t know how this links to today, but F. Scott Fitzgerald met Henry Adams (he described it, fictionally, in This Side of Paradise). Henry Adams was famously taken to summer school one difficult childhood day by his grandfather, John Quincy. So that’s three people. Any old Scribner’s or Hollywood types who met Fitzgerald still with us?
