Pronunciation

His surname is pronounced with the sounds kw - ah - st (with the "ah" representing the O in "hot", not the A in "hat"), according to the pronunciation of Faith Middleton of Connecticut Public Radio's program (formerly Open Air, and a local knockoff of Fresh Air) in interviewing him, i think by phone. I presume it is at least a version acceptable to him, tho my guess is that his parents' generation may have made the initial cluster of consonants closer to khw or even khv. Probably worth mention, tho i haven't looked for a written & hopefully more direct verification of it.
