------------------------------------------------------------
Hello fans,
I remember when I saw the movie 'Love Story'. I was only
7 years old and I didn't like it. I remember my mom and my
sister crying.
Because of this memory I always avoided watching it. A
few years ago, I watched it and I really enjoyed it. I cried
like a baby.
At seven, I guess I just couldn't understand everything.
As you can probably guess, we're catching up with someone
from the cast... Ali MacGraw.
Is it me, or does Angie Harmon look like Ali when Ali was
younger?
Be Well,
Anisa

TRIVIA: Worked as a fashion stylist on Manhattan photo shoots
in her early 20s, until she was eventually asked to work
before the cameras as a model.
Made a special appearance at the 74th Annual Academy Awards
in 2002.
Representing "Chalfonte-Haddon Hall", Ali was voted Atlantic
City's prettiest hotel waitress for the summer 1957 season.
Paramount Production head Robert Evans was developing several
high profile projects for her when she filed for divorce. The
roles she walked away from to marry lover Steve McQueen were
Daisy in 'The Great Gatsby' and Evelyn in 'Chinatown'.
Ali says that even today, more than 35 years after "Love Story"
was released, anywhere in the world she goes people come up to
her and say, "Oh my God, you made me cry."
WHERE IS SHE NOW: In 1995 she wrote a well-received auto-
biography, Moving Pictures (which she now states was "not well
written"), which described her struggles with alcohol and male
dependence. She was treated for the former at the Betty Ford
Center.
Made a tremendously successful Yoga video with the American Yoga
Master Erich Schiffmann, 'Ali MacGraw Yoga Mind and Body', which
was a bestseller upon release and was still popular more than a
decade later. The video's impact was such that in June 2007
Vanity Fair magazine credited her for being one of the people
responsible for the practice's recent popularity in the U.S. In
keeping with her interests, she narrated a well-received
documentary on 'Yoga, The Fire of Yoga' in 2003.
She made her Broadway theater debut in New York City in 2006 as
a dysfunctional matriarch in the drama 'Festen' (The Celebration).
She was also included in a Seventeen magazine issue for inspiring
hairstyles.
In July 2006, she filmed a public service announcement for PETA.
Now lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. On why she moved there she
said, "I've lived here since 1994. I was living in Los Angeles
when one of those wildfires took my house to the ground and I
always thought, not having a victim mentality, that was a cosmic
kick in the butt to get out of there. And I happened to have
just bought a little tiny getaway house in the hills of Tesuque.
Suddenly it became apparent that I was meant to live there."
Would she ever consider working on a feature film again?
"There's two answers to that. Just to be able to say, 'I did it,
but I got so much money and here's a list of places that I gave
it,'" she says. "Or something with a director who believed I
could do it, and about something that really mattered."
Looking at today's troubled young starlets. and politely not
naming names, Ali observes that she was able to hold her own
because stardom came to her when she was already almost 30.
In an interview a couple of years ago she said, "I live a very
healthy lifestyle that would probably bore the daylights out
of people. I do yoga every day. I meditate. I walk my dog for
40 minutes even if it means getting up at 5:30 in the morning
because I want the stillness. I do all the things we were told
as kids: I don't smoke or do drugs, I don't drink. It's not to
be prissy; it's just that it's healthier for me."
