...where stars are endlessly creative in finding ways to hit bottom. But even under that low bar, Hutton could do the limbo. In the late '70s she was discovered working as a cook and housekeeper in a Rhode Island rectory. There, she told Robert Osborne in a 2000 Turner Classic Movies interview, she found salvation under the gentle care of Father Peter McGuire. Hutton earned a cum laude degree from Salve Regina College, then taught drama and music. Her motto might have been the Johnny Burke-Jimmy Van Heusen novelty number she sang in the movie Duffy's Tavern...
...like these and you need someone like Bier to impart a dark, but still enviable, sheen to upscale life. And, more important, to penetrate mere stylishness to find the authentic drama beneath the handsome surfaces.

I also miss the best of political cartoons and humor. Please bring back TIME Classic! Bob Gottesman, CAROLINA BEACH...

Gregarious by nature and immaculate in appearance, Becky Hunter is a PW of the classic mold: after a recent Sunday service led by her son, Hunter worked the congregation like a politician's spouse, greeting familiar faces in the aisle in a big, bright voice that drew crowds of admirers. Her daughter-in-law Rhonda, 28, trailed quietly behind while tending to her two small children. Older PWs are more apt to consider themselves "first ladies," turning to the Web for networking and recipes...
