In 1987, David Selby (Richard Channing from 80s Prime Time Soap "Falcon Crest") was a guest on Joan River's Show "The Late Show starring Joan Rivers"

David Selby talks about working with Jane Wyman and Susan Sullivan, about having fun on the set of Falcon Crest and he also sings a song from his show "Dark Shadows" on which he appeared as Quentin Collins in the 70s.

Susan Sullivan Interview

There's a new Susan Sullivan Interview on youtube I wanted to share with you.
She was interviewed at her home by Henk van der Meyden, a journalist from The Netherlands. I think this is from 1982 or 1983.

Jamie Rose - Victim of Domestic Violence

Jamie Rose wrote a very personal article about a very important issue: domestic violence against women. She writes about her personal experiences with violence and with her physically abusive husband and encourages women to break the silence.

Please find the article here. I hope that many women (and men!) will read her story and maybe some eyes will open.

Domestic violence against women and children is still a big issue all over the world that needs to be addressed.
