"Night Magic, written in 1991 and posthumously published in 1995, is currently slated for a screen adaptation."
Is there any evidence of this?Bustter (talk) 18:20, 30 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
I cannot supply references for this but Tom was distantly related to the painter Dwight William Tryon also of Hartford Connecticut. My source is Tom himself who I knew slightly from the West Side YMCA. He'd had one or two piano lessons from me (no they didn't take!) and, in order to get a book back that I loaned him, I went up to his apartment in the San Remo Building on Central Park West.
Having recently seen a Tryon painting I asked him then if he was related to which he replied in the affirmative and immediately showed me two paintings by DWT that he owned. He may have told me that he was a distant cousin or nephew but I don't remember.
It might be possible to check this with a genealogy but I don't have time to research this at this point. Ed (talk) 17:32, 20 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
I added Dwight William Tryon to the category "People from Hartford Connecticut" today; this cannot be disputed since it is mentioned in the article and helps to tie Tom to the painter. Ed (talk) 13:01, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Please change the blurred, fuzzy photo of Tom Tryon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Garytzahnow (talk • contribs) 06:16, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
