“He’s growing up in the trailers, with a single mom, and he wants to make it. He’s going to use the moment to do it. He feels like he’s going to use the moment to do it, he seizes it and then he makes it happen, and I thought it was a pretty cool story,” said Ramaswamy, who was born in Cincinnati to parents who immigrated from India.


“I didn’t grow up in a trailer, but I also didn’t grow up in the same circumstances that most of my peers at Harvard did, either. I aspired to achieve what many of their parents did. It kind of spoke to me, I would say,” he told Politico.

GOOD GRIEF!!! This is the BEST MERYL
STREEP STORY I have EVER read!!! I first met
Meryl while working for Tennessee Williams -- at Virgil
Thomson's 85th Birthday Party where Ethel Merman led
all in singing "Happy Birthday".


I was standing, juggling my cake and punch, and had
not noticed my FAVE ACTRESS was sitting
alone on a chair next to 6' 11" me. Our Host
introduced us and she WAS shy and demure
then. I'd fallen in LOVE with her when I saw
"The Deer Hunter" and she told me she soon
had to be away from family to do her next film.
"Sophie's Choice" was opening only a week
or two after we met.


LATER, at the 1981 Kennedy Center Honors, we
partied together and with tons of other Celebs for
two days!!! It was THERE that she
introduced me to her husband, Don
Gummer: Chapters 7 & 8 of my Memoir.




And here is my LATEST BLOG POSTING and I will
post THIS THREAD on my next one, later this evening!!!:

Remembering John Cazale on his birthday 8/12/1935

In 1978, a young Meryl Streep was on the verge of becoming the greatest actress of her generation. She was also about to lose the love of her life.

“She doesn’t talk about it much,” says Michael Schulman, author of the Streep biography “Her Again.” “But that year was so wildly eventful and dramatic in her life. It was instrumental in shaping who she was as a person and an actor.”

Streep was 29 years old, a gosling in the New York theater world. She was living in a loft on Franklin Street with her boyfriend, actor John Cazale. He was 14 years her senior and a legend among his peers.

“I learned more about acting from John than anybody,” Al Pacino has said. “All I wanted to do was work with John for the rest of my life. He was my acting partner.”


Streep and Cazale met in 1976, when they were cast opposite each other in “Measure for Measure” in Central Park. By then, Cazale was not quite a star — he lacked that ephemeral quality — but he was regarded in the industry as a rare talent, in demand among the great directors of the era.

He was Fredo in “The Godfather” (1972) and “The Godfather Part II” (1974) and had lead roles in “The Conversation” (1974) and “Dog Day Afternoon” (1975). Of the five movies he starred in, all would be nominated for Best Picture, and three would win. Of the two, Cazale was the famous one, but they were still starving artists. Cazale would take Streep to dinner in Little Italy, where restaurant owners, awed to have Fredo in the room, insisted they eat for free.

He was known among directors as “20 Questions,” because he wanted detailed back story on all his characters. Pacino said a simple dinner with Cazale would become epic: “I mean, you’d be done — washed, finished, and in bed — before he got halfway through his meal. Then the cigar would come out. He’d look at it, light it, taste it. Then finally smoke it.”

Cazale and Streep were the envy of the New York theater world — she the most naturally gifted actress in generations, he the most naturally gifted actor, legendary director Joe Papp their patron — until one day in May 1977. Cazale, who was in previews for “Agamemnon” uptown, had been feeling ill enough to miss performances. Papp was concerned enough to get Cazale an emergency appointment with his own doctor on the Upper East Side. Within days, Streep and Cazale were sitting in the doctor’s office with Joe and Gail Papp. The diagnosis: Cazale had terminal lung cancer. It had spread throughout his body.

Pacino took Cazale to radiation treatments, sitting in the waiting room, hoping it wasn’t as bad as it seemed. Cazale himself insisted he’d get better, and when he fought to go back to work, Streep took a part she loathed just so she could be with him. She was just “the girl” in the movie — “essentially a man’s view of a woman,” Streep said. “She’s extremely passive, she’s very quiet, she’s someone who’s constantly vulnerable.” In short, she was everything Streep was not.


But the film was “The Deer Hunter” (1978) and Cazale had the chance to star opposite Robert De Niro in one of the few films to then grapple with the Vietnam War. The filmmakers fought to cast Cazale, even as the production company, EMI, insisted he be fired: The insurance costs would be outrageous, and no one wanted to back a movie with a terminally ill star. The story Streep would later tell: De Niro covered Cazale’s insurance costs, which the actor has never confirmed or denied. “He was sicker than we thought,” De Niro later said, “but I wanted him to be in it.”

In early March 1978, Cazale entered Memorial Sloan Kettering. Streep never left his side. On March 12, 1978, at 3 a.m., Cazale’s doctor told Streep, “He’s gone.”


“Meryl wasn’t ready to hear it, much less believe it,” Schulman writes. “What happened next, by some accounts, was the culmination of all the tenacious hope Meryl had kept alive for the past 10 months.


She pounded on his chest, sobbing, and for a brief, alarming moment, John opened his eyes. ‘It’s all right, Meryl,’ he said weakly. ‘It’s all right.’


Then he closed his eyes and died.

Happy Birthday, John Cazale!!!

Mark Henry -- I HAD to check you out (you
WORSHIP your motorcycle as well as Roy Rogers
Oldenkamp -- or at least his sense of SUPERIOR
STYLE), after seeing this comment.


Roy Rogers Oldenkamp -- and I see also YOU, Mark
Henry, too -- and I lived in Atlanta so many
overlapping years --
partying in the Gay Clubs -- but I didn't "meet" or
"friend" Roy until YEARS AGO, when he popped up
on my Facebook Feed and I THOUGHT he must be
related to Roy Rogers, who with Dale Evans
used to visit Roy's 1st cousin who lived next door to
me in Cincinnati, Ohio 1954 - 1957 (before I began grade
school), and they dressed in costume and entertained
all the neighborhood kids!!!


THEN, I found out Roy Oldenkamp now lives in
Tennesee Williams's old apartment in
WeHo -- and even owns one of Tenn's collages!!!


For the RECORD, the territory that became the British
Colonies North and South Carolina and Georgia, was
originally a DUMPING GROUND for British
Prisoners as an alternative to their being
hung!!! So, if no one did anything about THAT, these
three states would be where we would FORCE ALL
TRUMP (and Republican Party) SUPPORTERS so
they can kill each other off with their
BELOVED GUNS!!!-- LOL!!!




Here is my latest blog posting that has all of
Wilmington, North Carolina where I now live
ABUZZ with GOSSIP !!! Roy will
get a KICK out of it TOO:
