...watch Mitchell at Feinstein?s, in a gig that continues through Feb. 19, you see a friendly face that automatically smiles. His mouth, his eyes ... even his curly hair seems happy. You guess that, offstage, in a living room or a mall or asleep, his face would radiate a purring contentment. I haven?t met the man, but I know a few people who know him, and they say, unbidden, that he is The Nicest Guy in the World. And when my in-house theater maven, Mary Corliss, chatted with him a while back, she said he was as gracious...
...freezing water, fighting a 2-m.p.h. current and dodging ships might not be everyone's fantasy. But surrounded by his family on his 69th birthday, upon being asked how he wanted to celebrate his 70th, George Brunstad heard the words "swim the English Channel" pop out of his mouth.

Even his fatherhood is getting another airing: later this month Mitterrand's out-of-wedlock daughter, novelist Mazarine Pingeot, will publish Bouche Cousue (Not a Word, or literally Mouth Sewn Shut), which her publisher describes as an "extremely literary and very intimate" account in diary form of her relationship with a father who was devoted to her in private but couldn't acknowledge her publicly...
...cake and drinking a liter of orange soda; my knees hurt, my back ached, and I felt lost and scared as the sight of two third-graders in Osh-Kosh-B’gosh barreled down on me and caused me to throw up a little bit in my mouth.
