...easygoing enough to divulge her real birthday. Ask most actresses their age, and you'll get a how-dare-you stare or an outright lie. Russo, a devout Christian, once sought divine guidance about fudging her age for show biz's sake and ultimately decided to take the righteous path. She's 45. "What's sad is that actresses who are 40, 45, 50 and 60 aren't being considered for choice roles," she says. "And some of them have more to give today than ever...
...John Kennedy Jr. never took a simple path to public service. Not at 15, when he and his cousin Timothy Shriver trekked to Guatemala to help earthquake survivors rebuild. Not in his 20s, when he helped devise a program to improve treatment for the disabled that started in gritty New York City neighborhoods and is now being copied overseas. And not when a charity he worked with wanted to know how kids in a drug-prevention program were faring, and Kennedy went to talk with some himself...
...after takeoff, things got dicier. By this point in Kennedy's flight path, the lights of Westerly, R.I., would ordinarily have been visible to the left, and the porkchop-shaped outline of Block Island should have been off to the right.

He has wondered aloud if he is "Kennedy enough," and he appeared to be following the more wobbly path of some Kennedys in high school when a substance-abuse problem landed him in a treatment center. At Providence College, "he wanted to get away from Washington," says former roommate Jim Vallee, who remembers that their early years were not "terribly political." But by his junior year, Patrick had found his focus, in part...
...have been tricky for John Kennedy Jr. to use the public life to his advantage. In Lycidas, Milton called fame "that last infirmity of Noble mind," but for Kennedy fame was not a weakness; he never had a choice about it. His cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took a path away from politics too; he has exercised a gift for public duty in his work for the environment. George magazine was John's way of getting to the public, which is what publishing means...
