Deb said...: Here's a weird fact: Janis Joplin died on my 13th birthday (October 4, 1970) and four years later Anne Sexton died on my 17th birthday (October 4, 1974). It's odd the things you remember when you're in your adolescence.; 6:37 PM

I wonder if 'Diary of a Mad Housewife' is availble digitally yet? I actually started a short biopic about Sexton, but quickly came to realize that this would be more suitably created by a woman or team of people. All so compelling . . . Plus, Linda Gray Sexton would have to be part of any such project. HBO?; 10:37 PM
pattinase (abbott) said...: Yes, Searching for Mercy Street was a great account of her mother. Also read a straight bio that was very good.; 11:21 AM
