Van Cliburn was openly gay, but otherwise very private about his personal life. I have never, in my life, seen a man who was so pleased with life and with so little turmoil. The only drama, of which I am aware, is when he was sued by a 'partner', some years ago. Aside from this, the man's life was a dream, as far as I am concerned.
