January Updates & Sad They are too





So let me cover the good news first in celebrating the fact that Noel Neill enjoyed her 90th birthday in November because there has been plenty of sad news too since then. Over the last few months several of my signers and interviewees have gone to that silver screen in the sky including James Macarthur, Cammie King, Anne Francis and the totally lovely Ingrid Pitt. All of whom will be greatly missed. And we also lost Leslie Nielson and Kevin McCarthy too and both men were great signers and much loved by fans everywhere. During this period I also obtained interviews with great folk like Patrice Munsel, Barbara Shelley, Carla Laemmle, Coleen Gray, Margie Stewart, Sara Karloff and Michelle Lang. A rather eclectic group ranging from Michelle in her early 20s to the amazing Carla who is now 101 and whose father was born in 1859. Barbara, Coleen and Margie are also doing well too and Coleen was a pleasure to chat to leading into her 88th birthday. Not a lot to report in large signings apart from the beautiful Sandra Taylor and a small signing with Dana Hamm. Through the excellent offices of the UK charity, Our Disappearing Planet, I have also obtained some nice items from great folk like George Cole and Vera Lynn and Vera Day. Noel Neill did another lovely signing along with one I obtained indirectly with Karla Conway, a lovely 1966 PB babe.
