August 31 2014 "The 60's kids" were honored by CINECON 50 Classic Film Festival for our contribution to film & TV. Film clips were shown at the Egyptian theatre followed by a Q&A. Our shows were selected by Bob Birchard & Stan Taffel. Awards were given to Diane McBain, Francine York, me and H. M. Wynant.

I always have to thank my parents for giving me a face that afforded me the opportunity to portray so many different ethnicities. I'm always asked., "what are you anyway?"
