That's a shame. Bella Azbug, Gloria Steinman and "Then came Maude.". The women of my youth. She was great with Carroll O'Connor. The reason I admire Winona may be traced back to these type of women. Empowered and choosing their path,regardless of what critics and fans may think. Like you say, "Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion." Fat Jack
And then came Maude.
Easy travels ,Bea.

 David Carradine Found Dead in Hotel Room By Stephen M. Silverman
Originally posted Thursday June 04, 2009 10:05 AM EDT David Carradine Oscar-nominated actor David Carradine, best known for his leading role of Kwai Chang Caine on TV's Kung Fu in the 1970s, died Wednesday in Bangkok, where he was shooting a film, his manager confirmed Thursday. The star was 72.
According to manager Chuck Binder, the movie's producer went to Carradine's hotel room and found that he had passed away. Binder told Fox News the death is "shocking and sad. He was full of life, always wanting to work ... a great person."
Married five times and divorced four – he is survived by his widow, Annie Bierman, whom he married in 2004 – Carradine was nominated as Best Actor for his role as folksinger Woody Guthrie in 1976's Bound for Glory. Among his later screen roles was in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, in which he played Bill.
Varied and Long Career As profiled in PEOPLE in 1992, Carradine was born in Hollywood to the actor John Carradine and his first wife, Ardanelle, and was just 7 when his parents divorced.
Shuttled between the two, he grew up in boarding schools on both coasts. Although he was orphaned emotionally, he did become close to the seven stepbrothers and half brothers he would accumulate during Dad's four marriages: Ardanelle's older son, Bruce; Chris, Keith and Bobby (whose mother was actress Sonia Sorel); Mike Bowen (Sonia's son from an earlier marriage); and Mike and Dale Grimshaw (John's stepsons by third wife Doris Rich).
By 1970, Carradine says, "I had a house in the Hollywood Hills that virtually every brother has lived in. It was like this safe harbor. We all took care of each other."
David's acting breakthrough – as an Inca king on Broadway in 1965's The Royal Hunt of the Sun when he was 29 – came only after lean years of studying music and ballet at San Francisco State, a brief Army hitch and a life-support gig as a prune picker.

He was great in "Bound For Glory". Woody is one of my all-times, "This Land is Your Land" is my favorite song. David nailed that role. "Kung Fu" was a weekly habit when I was a teenager and I loved him in "Kill Bill". Great work, David!
Travel well.

In the late 1970's and early 1980's, no one could touch him. He was an artist. Groundbreaking music,groundbreaking dance, groundbreaking music video. All respect to him as an artist.
Hee-hee!

I'm not sure but I believe that is a photograph of John Hughes the director of documentaries,("Film Work", 1981) and not John Hughes the director of "Pretty in Pink".
