Agent -"I sometimes dread people knowing I'm a literary agent. You only have to mention writing or manuscripts and instantly someone's trying to show me their thingy. What about you? Do you whip it out in public?"
Me - "Not when the weather is cold!"

Gil Gerard, the actor who starred as the titular hero in “Buck Rogers in the 25th Century,” has died after a battle with cancer. He was 82.
"My life has been an amazing journey. The opportunities I’ve had, the people I’ve met and the love I have given and received have made my 82 years on the planet deeply satisfying," Gerard wrote in statement before his death and shared posthumously by his wife. "My journey has taken me from Arkansas to New York to Los Angeles, and finally, to my home in North Georgia with my amazing wife, Janet, of 18 years. It’s been a great ride, but inevitably one that comes to a close as mine has.
Don’t waste your time on anything that doesn’t thrill you or bring you love. See you out somewhere in the cosmos."

We are sad to announce the passing of our client, the actor John Woodvine, who died peacefully at home at the age of 96 this morning. A wonderful and well loved actor, who will be much missed. He is survived by his actress wife Lynn Farleigh & his children Mary and Emma.
Diane was a really good friend of ours. We laughed a lot. What an extraordinarily talented woman. Diane, you will be so missed on the Earth. Rest sweetly as sweet as you have been to everyone you have met. Love, Henry and Stacey.
RIP Jilly Cooper, 88.
Such a fabulously fun, mischievous, warm-heated lady. If she was in a room, everyone would feel instantly cheerier. Very sad news. 😢
"If there's one thing I can't stand, it's snobbery & one-upmanship. People trying to pretend they're superior. Makes it so much harder for those of us who really are."

There are certain people you know that you’re going to click with. After working with Robert Redford on Brubaker in 1980, we instantly became friends. Working with him again in An Unfinished Life was a dream come true.
Rest peacefully, my friend.
