EXPECTING. Mariel Hemingway, 25, lissome actress (Manhattan, Personal Best, Star 80) and granddaughter of Novelist Ernest Hemingway, and her husband Stephen Crisman, 37, who supervises Sam's Cafe, the couple's fashionable New York City restaurant: their first child; in December...
...atavistic character who loved the wrong things: violence and war. But Hemingway's reputation as a writer has survived, and grown. Public interest in the man and his work persists in an age that might be expected to forget the long-vanished ghost of the grandfather of Margaux and Mariel Hemingway.

And for lingering, breathless male fans of Star 80, take a deeeeeep breath: Hemingway isn't even looking good...
...Cubans who fled from Castro were middle class or even wealthy. Other Hispanics call them "the hads" (los tenia) because so many of their sentences supposedly begin "In Cuba, I had . . ." These Cubans in turn contrast themselves with others who fled in the 1980 boatlift from the port of Mariel, a minority of whom had been inmates of prisons or mental hospitals. The word Marielito, flung by one Cuban American at another, can be a fighting insult...
