  PROFILE: Carl T. Curtis
Curtis was a leader in the successful efforts in 1965 and 1966 to prevent repeal of Section 14(b) of the Taft-Hartley Act, which outlawed the requirement of membership in a labor organization as a condition of employment in any state or territory where such a requirement is prohibited by law.
Curtis was a co-author of the Small Watershed Act of 1954, which authorized the Department of Agriculture with the Soil Conservation Districts to build projects which are too large for an individual farmer or an individual soil conservation district to manage alone.
Curtis worked to change the inequities so that benefits were extended to the self employed, including farmers, to public employees, including school teachers, and to members of the professions and the uniformed services.

 Memories of My Father Watching TV - Curtis White
Carl is emotionally distant and apparently unwilling or unable to engage in actual communication with his family, and in these memories Chris literally recalls his father through the TV programmes they saw together, the shows themselves twisted to accommodate the family-narratives Chris wants (or needs).

American author Curtis White teaches at Illinois State University and is president of the Center for Book Culture.
