Memories of Robert E. Howard Memories of Robert E. Howard warriorphotog36

This is a interview I (warriorphotog36) shot with Norris Chambers, the last person living, as far as I know, who knew Robert E. Howard.

I interviewed him in 2007, as he took a tour of Howard's house for the first time in many many years. His dad and REH's dad were great friends, so Norris spent lots of time in Cross Plains at the Howard House. Robert was older than him, so he and Howard weren't friends nor close, but he is the last person living who spent any sort of time in a personal way with my favorite author. I will include this in some form or fashion in my documentary, but I wanted to share it with my fellow Howard fans before then. Any critiques are appreciated! The tall gentleman in the Tropical shirt is Leo Grin, editor of The Cimmerian, who was gracious enough to let me follow along and record the tour. (from youtube.com)
