John Ardoin

John Ardoin (January 8, 1935 – March 18, 2001) was an American music critic. The music critic of ''The Dallas Morning News'' for thirty-two years, he was particularly known for his friendship with the opera soprano, Maria Callas, about whom Ardoin wrote four books. His influence stretched much further than Dallas, and he was well aquatinted with many classical musicians of the postwar era. Provided by Wikipedia
