Richard Plotz

Richard Plotz (commonly known as Dick Plotz) is the creator of the Tolkien Society. He is known for his interview with J.R.R. Tolkien in the late 1960s under the auspices of Seventeen Magazine, and for a 1967 letter from Tolkien delineating the declension of the noun in late Quenya (the so-called "Plotz Declension").[1] Plotz also attended Harvard University as an undergraduate.
