| Thursday, January 31, 2002 Next magazine, Taiwan There's a four-page profile with pictures from the December PONY event in the current issue of Next magazine (dated 1/31.) Next is published in Taiwan and sold throughout Asia. In Taiwan, it's on sale through Wednesday 2/6. Also available in the US if you know where to look. Wednesday, January 30, 2002 Court TV: Tomorrow, Thursday at 5:30 pm ET/PT Just found out -- I'll be on Catherine Crier Live, Court TV at 5:30 pm Pacific and Eastern, Thursday 1/31. This will be my second Court TV appearance. In September, Diane Diamond interviewed me about the autobiographical elements of Nancy Chan. And I also did a live chat which you can revisit at: www.courttv.com/talk/ Monday, January 28, 2002 Tonight at 7:00 Nationwide National TV: TNN (The National Network) will air a 30-minute show about Theresa LaPore and Sydney Biddle Barrows (aka the "Mayflower Madam.") I appear in the second part of the show, discussing the implications of Sydney's fame for working girls. Go to http://www.tvguide.com for local listings. Airtimes: Monday 1/28 7:00 pm in all USA time zones Saturday February 2 at 1:00 AM Saturday, January 26, 2002 New York Post A few of us Gershwin alumni are mentioned on Page Six today. My name is spelled right but the real focus of the item is Neke Carson's fabulous Tuesday night event series @ the Gershwin Hotel. This Tuesday 1/29 Debbie Harry (of "Blondie") will read her poetry. Neke has been a friend and colleague for many years. He is a columnist for Night magazine and a witty prankster with new tricks up his sleeve always... Thanks, Neke! Thursday, January 24, 2002 January Magazine A review by Emru Townsend just went up at January, the award-winning Canadian lit-site. (That's a lit-site that happens to be Canadian. Not a Can-lit website.) Townsend's review is entitled "The Business of Pleasure." Wednesday, January 23, 2002 National TV: Monday 1/28 at 7:00 pm TNN (The National Network) will air an intriguing segment entitled "Madame Butterfly." Part of Fame For 15, a series about, yes, the quirky nature of FAME. This 30-minute show is about Sydney Biddle Barrows (who is famous for being the "Mayflower Madam") and Theresa LaPore (designer of Florida's infamous Butterfly Ballot.) I appear in the second part of the show, discussing the impact Sydney Barrows had on working girls of the '80s and '90s.

UK Media News: December Face Last night, I received a sweet note from Wendy-Joy who was reading the latest ish of FACE, the British monthly.

Will update when I find a copy. I will be deeply grateful to anyone who can point me to their website or send me the magazine! My own Google search has been fruitless. Or should I say faceless.
