More on Jen Danby and Sharon Tate and one Italian Short Article Translated

Jen Danby contacted me and wanted me to post some news she has...

"Sissy Gamache interviews Debra Tate, sister of 1960s Actress, Model, and Style Icon Sharon Tate, and author of the beautiful book, "Sharon Tate: Recollection" together with Jen Danby, producer/actress and writer and performer of "Sharon Tate in Heaven," directed by Austin Pendleton, this week.

She will also be doing a Q and A and book sign/autograph at the performance of Ms. Danby's "Sharon Tate in Heaven" Thursday October 23 to benefit Big Cat Rescue non-profit for lions, tigers, and wildcats. Join Sissy as she interviews Debra Tate and Jen Danby about International Actress Sharon Tate.

Jen is also heading the Star on the Walk of Fame for Sharon.  Please email me for information on how you can participate and help with this.  It's about time Sharon got her star!

 

Thanks so much to Jen for this news!

Here is a small clipping and I had it translated:

She Makes the Most of the Camera

The career of Sharon Tate, the beautiful American Actress, is booming in films:  After playing parts in "Thirteen," with Kim Novak and David Niven, and "Don't Make Waves" with Claudia Cardinale and Tony Curtis, she will now have a part in "Valley of the Dolls", based on the known "best-seller."  A big step forward for Sharon who has made a long and successful stay "in waiting while learning her skills" now.  Just to stay in Hollywood, she had to take jobs like waitress and "nurse" before the "talent scouts" came calling.

I never heard of being a nurse in any way?  Maybe they are thinking the waitressing was as the Kelly Kanlani Wine girl?  Or maybe she did waitress?  Some good questions to ask Debra, huh?

Thanks for coming by.... Mike

She is everywhere these days promoting her new book, "Recollection: Sharon Tate".  It's great to hear about Sharon rather than the person who had to do with her untimely death.

A new play on Sharon?  :

PS: I am having some problems with blogger right now and it has kept my posts to a minimum.  I will try to get this fixed with google asap but please be patient.  Thanks.

Books on Sharon

Please be sure to check out this link for a must owned book for any and every Sharon collector:

http://sharontaterecollection.com/

Also, more books are coming out on Sharon:

Sharon Tate (Kindle Book on Amazon) by Andrew York

Time Being Books is publishing a poetry collection, Sharon Tate and the Daughters of Joy by David Herrle.  It contextualizes the lives and dooms of Sharon Tate, Queen Marie Antoinette and Mary Jane Kelly (one of the victims of Jack the Ripper) with the topics of beauty, art, mortality, atrocity and hope.  The sixth and final section of the book (“Charlie Manson and the Scorpion Children”) deals with the Manson scumbags and Sharon’s fate.  In a penultimate prose drama, so to speak, the narrator lives out the fantasy of saving Sharon (and her friends) from Watson, Atkins and Krenwinkel.

Here is a rare photo I'd like to share of Sharon:

 

Sharon's Wedding Dress Among Items Stolen from Debra Tate's Home!

Hello everyone,

Sorry it has been awhile.  A lot has been going on in my personal life and I would like to apologize for not blogging more.

Please be aware that someone out there has stolen Sharon's wedding dress and mink stole from Debra Tate's home.  If anyone has ANY information please let us know so I can pass this along to the Official Board, Debra and the police.

Debra would just like to get the items back. These items mean so much to her as you can understand why.  Thank you in advance for any information you can deliver.  Please no phony emails, only serious ones.

Sharon Was Almost in a Mel Ferrer Movie? Another Autograph Auction for a Young Sharon, A Check Written by Sharon, More Ebay, A Nice Photo of Debra, A Blog Created for a Friend of Sharons, Vidal Sassoon Mentions Polanski and More in Interview, More Art of Sharon, More Photos and A Set of Pix From "Eye of the Devil"

Apparently, Sharon was almost in a Mel Ferrer Movie entitled, "The Rock House."  I looked up this film on the Internet Movie Database but it is not included in Ferrer's work, so I suppose it was never made for whatever reasons?

Here is the letter sent originally with the script.

The letter was in this lot above.
