Theatrical genes

Michael Tilson Thomas is not the last of the Thomashefsky line by a long shot [“The Heir Prepares His Inheritance for Display,” by Paul Lieberman, April 16]. I’m still here, the son of Boris’ youngest sister, Annie Thomashefsky. So are my two sons and two grandchildren, one of whom wants to be, guess what, an actor! Also still in the running are my late sister’s two sons and two grandchildren.

As a matter of fact, given the proclivities of Pincus Thomashefsky, the father of them all, and Boris himself, there are no doubt a multitude of Thomashefsky gene-carriers scattered around the globe!
