...Dick Cavett. The late-night television event of the year: Cavett's in-depth, two-night interview with Katherine Hepburn. Highly touted as a talk show coup, Cavett calls this show "the best interview I've ever done." Worth watching if it's only half as good as her best movies. CH. 5. 11:30 p.m. Color. 90 min. Concluded Wednesday night...
Hutton, now 28, still looks orange-juice wholesome, and her funny flaws remain. Tastes change, however, and Hutton has become modeling's new superstar. Her 19th Vogue cover will appear in October. She is now getting film offers and requests to appear on the Carson, Cavett, Griffin and Sally Quinn shows. Recently she got one of her profession's great plums by signing to appear in all magazine and TV ads for Charles Revson's Ultima II cosmetics line. That two-year contract alone will bring her about...

...over a hundred photographs organized by photographer and entrepreneur Larry Schiller because he needed money. $50,000 for 25,000 words in two months, and Mailer could once again make the alimony payment to his four former wives, repay his agent, Scott Meredith, and as he revealed on the Cavett show, pay off a debt to his mother. But fascinated with his subject, confessing that he at one time fantasized that he would have been man enough to satisfy Marilyn, Mailer reworks her life into 90,000 words--which make it clear that no man was the equal...
