Note on "Journalism, theater, and international activity" section

[edit]

I don't like the section heading but couldn't come up with anything better. Nor was I able to cleanly divide it into separate sections: Alsberg's writing, theater work, diplomatic work, and foreign aid all overlapped. I did try separate sections, but the flow was too disjointed and jumped around in time too much. I felt a chronological approach was simplest for readers. That said, if any editor has an idea for a better section title or ideas for subsections, I'd love to hear them. Schazjmd (talk) 20:45, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I figured out some subsection headings that seem to work. Schazjmd (talk) 21:26, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note on sexuality

[edit]

Alsberg was what they called a "confirmed bachelor". His biographer writes with the presumption of homosexuality, but offers no evidence for any romantic/sexual encounters/relationships. The only facts alluding to him being gay were the Civil Service investigation and the stories he wrote in Mexico, both of which I included in the article without elaboration. None of the other sources mention his sexuality. Schazjmd (talk) 20:45, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
