I did an interview by mail with Mr. Wright for the first issue of the Now & Then Times back in 1972 and still remember vividly the excitement of getting two syndicate proofs of the Max & Mini panel he was attempting to syndicate at the time, a long hand-written letter (unfortunately) both long ago misplaced, as well as a paperback of his Doug Wright's Family strips and a Doug Wright's Family original both of which I still have.

At one point, answering a question about his Libertarian political views Chet said, "All of my friends are liberals" and I momentarily considered yelling "HEY!" really loud from the back of the room for comedic effect (being, I was pretty sure, the only other person in the room besides Chet whose politics were to the right of Pierre Trudeau's) but thought better of it (yelling tends to frighten liberals terribly at the best of times and therefore has limited comedic applications in their native habitats)
