As a member of the Academy, I was recently featured in the LA Times “Unmasking The Academy” article, with my profile being featured next to such big names as Madonna and Haley Joel Osment. Read what they had to say about me below! And don’t forget about my book signing and release party tomorrow! Details and address [...]
On a day such as today with two hideously pathetic public relations nightmare stories hitting the fan it just amazes me that people don’t understand the importance of hiring good public relations specialists. First, let’s take the saddest news. Joe Paterno, legend 46-year head coach of Penn State is fired because the advice he received from [...]
This weekend I traveled yet again to Lost Angeles – this time to tape an interview for my book video which will be up on YouTube soon and of course may also be viewed on my web page. I could have taped the interview locally but my nephew is an Emmy-winning television sports producer and [...]
I rarely make the effort these days to go out at night – especially into San Francisco via BART in the rain. But I did exactly that last Tuesday night to hear my favorite ex-Hollywood insider and favorite blogger Andy Borowitz who appeared at the Herbst Theatre as part of the City Arts and Lectures [...]

It was no surprise to me that Arnold Schwarzenegger finally managed to get caught in a big PR nightmare scandal. His daily behavior has always been a nightmare of epic proportions. When he ran for Governator the first time, reporters from all over the globe called me because they had heard through the proverbial Hollywood [...]
Betty White is my idol. Period. I met the extraordinary lady in 1988 when she called me to offer her help publicizing a film Universal was about to release called Gorillas In The Mist. It is about the life of Dian Fossey, the scientist who traveled to Rwanda to study the vanishing mountain gorillas, finally [...]
Tom Cruise once told me that to work well with him I needed to study Scientology. He wanted me to take an introductory class at their Los Angeles Center. Pat Kingsley, the most renowned Hollywood publicist at the time, who had just signed the Cruise account, would take the class with me. I was outraged [...]
One of the very first assignments I was given as a fledgling television field reporter was to interview eight-time Academy-Award-winning costume designer, Edith Head.
