For me it was Jeff Kinney. I was meeting a different author I love, but there wasn’t enough room downstairs and we had to go up. Turns out that’s exactly where Jeff Kinney works! He’s the author who got me into reading so I thought that was so cool

    When Obama was campaigning he did a stop at my kids’ high school. My husband shook his hand.

    Couple of years ago a friend and i were at breakfast and started talking to an old guy sitting at the counter beside us. It was photographer Irv Steinberg. He sat and chatted for an hour, telling funny stories about photographing Marilyn Monroe and accidentally eating John Wayne’s steak.

    When my kids were young they auditioned for ER and we met Anthony Edwards. He said, “hi. I’m Tony,” which seemed funny.
