Season of the Witch: Dusty Anderson
Three years ago I celebrated Halloween 2020 with three posts under the “Season of the Witch” banner. Each one was a brief love letter to a beloved witch—Michelle Pfeiffer as Sukie Ridgemont in The Witches of Eastwick, Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha from Bewitched, and Morgan Fairchild’s memorable photo shoot.

When I was growing up, all I knew of Jane Birkin could be summed up in three words: leggy, glamorous, and beautiful. She existed in my pop culture sphere as an unattainable, unspeakably gorgeous human being who was a photographer’s dream subject. Later, I learned she was a model, a singer, an actress, lent her … Continue reading RIP Jane Birkin
