I'm just a simple kid from Brooklyn who landed into the most enchanted lifestyle imaginable.

For better or worse, I've always tried to march to my own drum and tell it like it is, while preserving some integrity and style. God, I'm fabulous!

I don't know about you, but I can tell when someone's lying. They can't look you in the eye - they look you in the bridge of your nose.

I go to screenings, then plays, then after-parties, then clubs.

In '75, the year both A Chorus Line and Chicago hit Broadway, my head spun around and I became the ultimate theater queen for life.

By the end of the week, if I'm still alive, I get to write whatever I want about it all.

For years, I've pushed the idea of a column compilation book mainly because it would be easy - I could just staple 'em all together. But publishers have been resistent, feeling the material dates.
