In my former life, I met Presidents from Reagan to Obama and Richard Nixon, Heads of States, many many sports figures and movie stars. And yes, Paul Newman did have very blue eyes!! Charleston Heston had broad shoulders. Christopher Reeves was gorgeous! Tom Cruise was short. Joan Rivers and Nancy Reagan are very tiny.

Two memorable occasions come to mind-

Patrick Ewing was our intern for two summers when he was a student at Georgetown. He used to tease me that I came to his waist. I'lll never forget the day he held a newborn baby in the palm of one of his hands. His hands were huge! Or, the day we walked to the Library of Congress and people kept their cars running in the middle of the road to get his autograph!! Yikes!

On another day a secret service agent came into my office asking for directions. i told him I would have to show him. Hillary Clinton (a Senator then) stood outside the door. I asked her if she was ok!!! What can I say, she looked really tired. If looks could kill, I wouldn't be here!! I told that story to my former boss when I was in TV in May!! Good thing I'm retired!!
