  • Literature, the NY Mets, and the Tug of Baseball
    Judy Johnson, Hall of Fame 1975. “Sure-handed third baseman from the sandlots of Delaware . key player in the Negro Leagues . good instinctive base- runner . line drive hitter with an excellent batting eye . a smart, soft-spoken and well-respected player," an athlete whose intelligence set him apart. If I were a professional ballplayer, these are attributes I'd hope to display. William Julius Johnson. Judy. What an honor to bear his name. But I’m not that Judy Johnson. I’m an English teacher, ordinary fan, mother of three children who love baseball. One of those kids slept peacefully in my arms on a long escalator ride to the top of Candlestick Park in August 1986. My firstborn son was six weeks old, and I had to show him the game, and the visiting team. I had to show him my Mets. Three summers later we sat in 95-degree heat, 8 rows from the tippy top of Shea Stadium, all sticky with Dove Bar and beer. My boy was with me on the night that Number 8 kept Game 6 alive. When it was all over, I jumped up and down on the bed - “They won! The Mets won!” - and twirled my baby around the room, screaming, “I can’t believe they won!” A few months later that tiny child spoke one of his first words: Mookie. I cannot boast vast quantities of baseball knowledge or memorabilia, but a few Mets items have taken up residence in my home: a plastic chip-and-dip plate in the shape of a baseball glove molded in orange and royal blue.

  • The 50Th Anniversary of The
    HOFSTRA CULTURAL CENTER presents a conference The 50th Anniversary of the Thursday-Saturday, April 26-28, 2012 In Memory of Hofstra University Professor Dana Brand Author of Mets Fan and The Last Days of Shea Registration Program The 50th Anniversary of the Conference is dedicated to the memory of DR. DANA BRAND (1954-2011) rofessor Dana Brand, former chair of the Hofstra University Department of English and a lifelong Mets fan, was a scholar and critic of American literature and late P19th- and early 20th-century culture. He joined the Hofstra faculty in 1989, and throughout his career at Hofstra, he produced not only academic books and articles on topics in literature, philosophy, and film, but also personal essays. Some of these essays became the basis for his book Mets Fan, which was released in 2007. His second book about baseball fandom, The Last Days of Shea, was published in 2009, and his efforts in the blogosphere earned him the nickname “The Proust of Mets Bloggers” in The New York Times. From Professor Brand’s essay “Baseball and the Life of the Mind” (relating a conversation he had while a graduate student at Yale with Bart Giamatti, J. Hillis Miller, and Jacques Derrida): “We were just, for that moment, some people talking about things we loved deeply. We knew that we didn’t understand our love of sports any more than anyone else. But we were happy to stand out in the cold and share the fact that we loved it.” And we loved him.
