I have to send out to Madeleine LeBeau. I've got a letter ready to go out to her. And that Woodstock album is probably worth a fortune. Keep it safe!

TTM- Madeleine LeBeau. It took me many years to find an address for her in Italy.
Bought- Sydney Greenstreet book with a vintage signaure from the early 30's.
IP- Either Jimmy Carter (single), or the Woodstock album (mulitiple) that I have signed by about 40 of the performers there.

I did stand about 6 feet from Paul McCartney a few years ago, but he wasn't signing. That would have been my greatest.

I ended up giving some to fellow Who fans and ex-gfs that I got into Who, but I still have 7 :)

Definitely Tom Baker, the fourth Doctor Who. I wrote to him back in '99, not sure if I'd get anything back since I'd heard at that point he was iffy with TTM (and now hardly signs TTM at all). I was stunned when an envelope arrived with 14 signed and inscribed pictures and postcards, and a very nice note from him (all directly from him; I hadn't sent him anything to sign and simply asked for a photo). I was on a Who high for DAYS.

I have gotten a few extra-special successes. They are from:

Chuck Aber - Neighbor Aber from "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" sent me a handwritten letter, a personalized photo, unsigned photos of every cast member of the show, a trolley pin, and some other stuff.

Sherwood Schwartz - sent me 5 or 6 personalized photos. Always heard he was a generous signer.

Gavin MacLeod - what a total SHOCK success this was for me...one day received a HUGE package. Inside was an 8x10 color personalized photo from him, a "thank you" note from a rep of Princess Cruises (who Gavin MacLeod is a spokesperson for), and...get this...the first season of "The Love Boat," which Mr. MacLeod signed and personalized to me. I was BLOWN away by this. I can't imagine what I must have said that made him want to send me all this. Whatever it was, it must have really tugged at his heartstrings.

Tom Silva - he is one of the guys on "This Old House" and "Ask This Old House." I sent an e-mail to him, and on the SAME DAY as I got my mega-success with Gavin MacLeod, Mr. Silva sent me an enormous package with...an "Ask This Old House" t-shirt signed by the whole cast of the show, a "This Old House" magazine, and a personalized photo of Tom himself. What...a...guy!

Those are the ones I can think of right now.

Mine so far has to be Dev Patel. I sent him 2 pictures and Q&A, and he autograph both pictures and answered my Q&A fully. And one the questions I asked was "If you had perfect day, what would you do?". And he answered, "I would go on a date with the most beautiful woman in the world,...Olivia (last name)"! {love} {love}

The Q&A 2:
