In My Own Words:
Amazon.com questions: Where do you live? - New York City What you do for work? - Lawyer; Film Producer What's your all-time favorite movie or book? - Movie: 'Nights of Cabiria' by Federico Fellini. I also love 'Age of Innocence by Martin Scorsese.' Book: 'Invisible Man' by Ralph Ellison What's your all-time favorite love song? - That's hard, but I'd have to say 'In Your Eyes' by Peter Gabriel.

I also love 'Age of Innocence by Martin Scorsese.' Book: 'Invisible Man' by Ralph Ellison What's your all-time favorite love song? - That's hard, but I'd have to say 'In Your Eyes' by Peter Gabriel. The lyrics are breathtaking-'I am complete in your eyes, I see the doorway to a thousand churches in your eyes, the resolution of all my fruitless searches, in your eyes'; it just doesn't get any better than that, anywhere! We all want to feel like that about someone and we want someone to feel like that about us, right? What are your passions? - Screenwriting, children. Your pet peeves? - Smoking/smokers and people who litter. People who throw their nasty cigarettes on the ground are obviously the worst thing to me. If someone handed you an Amazon.com gift certificate, what would you buy? As many film noir DVDS as possible and anything about 19th century NYC (books, movies, etc.) If you had a month off--no work, no responsibilities--what would you do? - Live in a country home near the ocean in St. Lucia, fish and garden in the day, write in the afternoon, play tennis in the early evening, and frolic with the love of my life at night. Who is your favorite musician? - Stevie Wonder, hands down. He sings about black life and love like no one else. Name your top 5 biggest celebrity crushes. - Hmmm, 5 are hard. Let me see:(1) Maxwell (the singer) is yummy. (2) Denzel is by far one of the sexiest men alive! (3) Ricky Fante is absolutely gorgeous and soulful. He's our modern day Marvin Gaye(4) I LOVE John Cusak. He is so adorable,endearing and I love almost all of his film characters. His film persona (the hopeless optimist willing to do anything to find true love, even if he gets hurt or has to do the unthinkable) signifies the ideal male personality to me! Fearless(5) Blair Underwood is the epitome of manhood! Name your favorite things to do to relax. - Gardening, cooking, baking and pilates.

I can't really say much more about Songs In The Key Of Life that has not already been said. If I were on a deserted island and could only have 3 things, they would be (1) the love of my life, (2) food and (3) Songs In the Key Of Life. I guess I'd also need a CD player too. This is, hands down the best music ever created in the HISTORY of music. Thanks Stevie!

I was so captivated by this house, the farm and the recipes. One can only imagine what it is like to live in such a beautiful place along side a lake, with your own vegetable garden and animal farm. This is my dream life! What a lucky woman. And it doesn't hurt that she's married to a rich sexy rock star that can write songs about their perfect life, play the guitar and sing to her. Ok, I'm officially a wee-bit jealous!

I read this book for the first time when I was a first-year in college back in 91'. This book resonated back then and I just fished it out of my childhood closest accidentally after visiting my mom last week. I was compelled to read it again, particularly because I remembered how the book affected me more than ten years ago. I also just read the updated book, and it is just as good as the original. It is really a must read for individuals who grew up with the pressure to succeed, whether self-inflicted or pressure from their parents. It's also important for parents to read this book. I gave my parents a copy more than 10 years ago and I look forward to reading it when I have children.
