Update on Phil Merrill

For the latest news about publisher Phil Merrill's death and links to The Washingtonian's site and blog, go to the BDL Newsroom.

BTW... I should take this time to mention that there is another famous Phil Merrill in town, with whom I also have a connection. Philip J. Merrill, whom I first met at Loyola College, is an author and an Antiques Roadshow appraiser. He is an authority on African American historical research and alive and well here in Baltimore.
