   I am sorry to read that a family member would sell this item. Of course I don’t know if they need the money but I find it rather sad. Orson was a gifted man and any of his children have plenty of reason to have pride in his accomplishments.

   Michelle,

   Your book on Lupe hasn’t been issued and already interest in the film rights? You go girl. Am so happy for you.

   Early days yet, Betty, but yes, a producer has my manuscript. Her story should be told, so long as it follows my truthful account of her life, it’d be a riveting bio-pic.

   Thanks for letting me know, Paul. Did they release the buyer’s name?
