On August 7,2009, at the sixth international conference on the state of Mark Twain Studies at Elmira College in Elmira, New York, Mark Dawidziak presented a paper on Holbrook's long career as the world's best-known Mark Twain performer. At the conclusion of Dawidziak's presentation, Holbrook stood up in the audience and delivered these impromptu remarks. (This video was taken on a digital still camera by Kent Rasmussen and is posted here with the permission of Mr. Holbrook.)
I met Mr. Holbrook at a restaurant in Elmira while he was there for this event. He gave me a signed autograph for myself and one also for my mother. He's a great person and a very kind person.
