"I have the Dreadful Urge to be Merry..." ~ Charles Addams

Today I awoke to find this picture in the New York Times slideshow for the Edward Gorey "Nightshade is Growing Like Weeds" article! You can see it here, or by clicking on the preview image below:




I didn't realize they used a photo of me to help illustrate the actual printed article as well, so what a grand surprise (you can imagine the photographer Tina is rather pleased as well)! With the article's other images being Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, Tim Burton's retrospective exhibit at MoMA, stills from Neil Gaiman's "Coraline" and the Lemony Snicket films along with Edward Gorey himself, it really doesn't get much better:








Cute vignette of the Doubtful Guest leading into the story:

I still think they should have used more of your interview (although it's possible I am biased). But photo as part of it is excellent!

My mother e-mailed me yesterday and said, "Hey, this person you know is in the NYT!" Hee.

That could so go different ways... I'm glad it was *this* way ;)

And thank you for wanting to read more of my interview ~ I'll share some of the rest of it sometime...

I say we invite them all over to your next big family-style brunch :) Your cat can sit in the chair meant for Gorey ~ he'd like that.

Have you been to the exhibit at the Boston Athenaeum yet? If we make it up there before it ends in June (which I think we might!), we could see it together.

Oh, that's fantastic news! I'd jump up and down if it didn't wake the roommates up! I haven't seen the exhibit yet, but I'd love to get a big group together all dressed up for the occassion.

An actual copy will be en route to you shortly, having had both Cricket and Rio take naps on it. Anointed by kitties, or something.
