Divine Days
LEON FORREST (1937-1997) was born in Chicago and taught at Northwestern University for more than two decades.

His papers are held at the McCormick Library of Special Collections and University Archives at Northwestern University. KENNETH W. WARREN is the University of Chicago Fairfax M. Cone Distinguished Service Professor.
