Now that you mention it, Levi, I suppose I should. It's Michael Gough. Hurd Hatfield, who played Dorian Gray in the classic film, once did a recital of this on television - Sunday night, prime time, an entire special devoted to American poetry (sounds unimaginable, and that was the day's of the vast wasteland) - and his performance was simply perfect.
Frank, do you think it's worth clarifying that this is not T. S. Eliot in the video?
