Collected Richert Papers

William Richert knew River as an actor, business partner, confident and friend.

This volume of "Collected Richert Papers-The River Phoenix Letters," contains 29 years of letters William wrote about River Phoenix; the quality of his character in life and the truth surrounding the circumstances of River's death.

"There are people among us who can take our breath away with their character and style, with qualities of goodness and generosity that make us blink to be sure we are seeing correctly; they are rare, and so beautiful. River Phoenix was such a person." -- William Richert (River Phoenix eulogy written by William Richert for "Farewell, Godspeed" edited by Cyrus M. Copeland)
