Although there's a documentary about Salter from 2011, still no adaptation of thiis novel. Probably shouldn't wish for it, given what often happens to "IP."

I would rather play a maid than work as a maid, she is supposed to have said. She died at 59 from breast cancer but couldn't be buried at Hollywood Cemetery, as was her wish. You know why.

Please recall that the Supreme Court didn't make it legal for all women for decades. And now with a certain Supreme ready to reargue Griswold, the MAHAs who don't like the Pill, and ding dongs like Dr. Oz saying America is in a crisis because we are "under-babied"...

James Newton Howard, born on this day in 1951, has an Emmy, a Grammy, and 9 Oscar nominations.
I'd like to think there's an Oscar win in his future. He's certainly deserving.
A wonderful body of work to be enjoyed and admired by all.
Happy birthday, James!
9/9

The first African American to win the Oscar (Gone with the Wind), she was seated at a segregated side table at the ceremony and couldn't attend the movie premier because it was held in Atlanta. Her Oscar acceptance speech will reduce you to tears. Born on this day in 1893.

A fighter pilot turned screenwriter/film director/novelist. His novel The Hunters became a Robert Mitchum movie, his screenplay for Downhill Racer was a hit, so why neither he nor anyone else ever tried to adapt this "hot property" (it's erotic) is hard to say.
