Re: Provincetown
all gays are rich and young, it would appear on logo, they only do five star hotels on their travel show. it's too much like mtv. it's weird as a mature man, to see how many children are hired as backup dancers and talk show hosts and how seldom anyone is ever over 25 on television. where are the shows with a cast of ugly men on them any more, like Barney Miller?

Re: Greer Lankton
Cloey, Thank you for sharing this collection of letters about Greer. I knew her well for many years and spoke to her on the telephone about a week before she passed away. I loved her very much as did so many many people. She was so fortunate to have a great family like yours. You are a talented writer and story teller and I hope you continue to write. Greer is most surely sending you love and encouragement from wherever she may be. thanks again. Bobby Miller

Re: Grey Gardens: The Musical?
I definitely want to go see this! Anyone who knows me knows I am a huge fan of the film; Albert Maysles gave me an original marquee poster from the 1975 release when we did a party for the rerelease at Mother. And Bobby Miller gave me a wonderful portrait he shot of "Little" Edie. Both are among my most valued treasures. Doug Wright, who wrote the book for this is an amazing writer; he also wrote the impressive "I Am My Own Wife" a few years back. A show which was like a shining jewel amidst...

Re: Provincetown 2
It sure was cruel of you Daddy to leave Messy Bonnie Raitt waiting for half the day on the corner of Grand Street with her little bag packed with essentials -Drum tobacco and Thunderbird and some oxys- thinking you were gonna live up to your promise and whisk her away to Ptown! I gave her train fare to Coney. She seemed fine. But just as a warning for when you get back in to town and find some upchuck on the decks at Crobar. And did you give my message to Ms. Miller?
