Gordon Liddy and other authors of Watergate fame, Winans has told his story in a new book titled Trading Secrets: Seduction and Scandal at the Wall Street Journal (St. Martin's Press; $17.95). To promote this candid and engrossing tale, the author is on a 13-city tour.

The fundamental fact of the Middle East today is that those who engage...
...central character. In a role that could easily become unlikable, Madolyn Smith, best known as the star of the CBS-TV mini-series If Tomorrow Comes, enlists playgoers' sympathy from the first moment and charms them right through her final perplexed, ingratiating grin. She is so appealing, so candid and self-critical and spunky, that at times it is hard to tell just how good the play is. In San Diego, it feels terrific...
