“Christopher was a passionate, articulate spokesman for the time of the blacklist. He learned about it from his father and experienced it, and he was absolutely articulate and vigilant in everything he did being an accurate interpretation of what that time was like and the principles his father stood for. You could tell he has absorbed his father’s biting sense of humor and independence of spirit. You really felt like you were in his father’s world when you are listening to Chris,” Playwright, Peter Askin said.
