Gen: Peter Spier

[Kay Mary <WISENER@LIS.UNT.EDU>]

I have a friend who is giving a booktalk on Peter Spier on Monday,
July 3rd. She needs to know how to pronounce his last name. She has
heard convincing arguments for both /Spear/ and /Spire/. If any of
you know without a doubt, please share the knowledge.
You may reply to my address  wisener@lis.unt.edu  or her address
lisac@tenet.edu
Thank you very much for your help.

P.S.  Thanks to those of you who responded to my question regarding
school library media centers in the year 2000.  You all were a great
help!
