769551 Interesting selections! I would have chosen more, but I would not be able to read them all.

If anyone is interested, my fourth book "Dream Reachers" will be released between May 10th and May 20th. It's a compilation of OLD anecdotes of interviews I had with Clint Eastwood, Jane Russell, Ted Kennedy, etc. AND my co-author Chase Von's NEW interviews with upcoming entertainers like Darcy Donavan, Jenny McShane, MT Robison, Barbara Evans, Jason Seitz, Kitty Kavey, Jennifer Wilkinson,Shawn Richardz...and the list goes on.

It was a fun book to write and edit because it took me back to my day AND I met some new celebrities too.It's an inspiring book that tells how these famous people had to stretch to reach their dreams.
