MARIA CIACCIA

 I've loved Tyrone Power my whole life.  For me, he was the handsomest man that ever lived.  He definitely helped my interest in old films.  This was taken a year or two before he died.  He is with Mai Zetterling, with whom he had a protracted affair (she devotes an entire chapter to him in her book).

  Below, Power on the set of "Solomon and Sheba" shortly before he died. 

 God kissed him on the cheek and brought him home early.

Here are two of the three Power children - Romina Power and Tyrone Jr. (actually he's Tyrone IV and his little boy is Tyrone V).  I think he resembles his father a great deal.  Romina was married for many years to Al Bano, an Italian singer.  Their beautiful daughter went to New Orleans in 1994 and disappeared.

Below is Taryn Power, Romina's younger sister.  Their mother is Linda Christian, and you can certainly see that both Taryn and Romina inherited beauty from both sides of the family!

This is Miranda, the tranvestite baby I loved so much on All My Children.  Miranda was played by boy twins.

Pookie, my first kitten, the day after I got him in 1986.  He died in my arms in 2003.  He was an amazing animal, very smart and very vocal.
