Jane, according to a Presidential proclamation from 1932, Thanksgiving fell on Thursday, November 24 that year.

I, like Dale Carnegie, was born on November 24th. What day did Thanksgiving fall on in 1932.

David,

I had never heard of “…As Others Saw Him” prior to your post. I can’t believe you found it in your basement (and to be quite honest, makes me want to start digging around in my old boxes for hidden gems). But I digress…

Thank you so much for sharing this story and also sending link love to my Carnegie post. It is apparent that we have a mutual admiration for the man and I look forward to reading more of your stuff.

*Bonus – I checked out Spitter.com. I am a huge sports fan so kudos to you for creating a space for crazy fan discussions!

Kindest regards,

Courtney

Dear Dave,

Great article and thank you for the plug! I have the great honor of working with members of the Crom family (since I am a freelance trainer for Dale Carnegie Training, here in NYC). I love their stories and anecdotes about him and also about Dorothy, his wife, who took charge of the business after his death.

Best,
Jackie Kellso

Coincidentally, it was Dale Carnegie’s birthday on the day I published this post! He was born on November 24, 1888.
