   My Mod Life Crisis's Blurbs
About me:
Current film project: Suzy Creamcheese, What's Become of You? Based on a true story, Nancy, a naive but fearless farm girl escapes her repressive upbringing to become Simone, the first all-nude dancer and a belle of the 60s Sunset Strip. Simone fights for survival against debilitating demons and the shattering of ideals as the peace and love decade implodes, leaving a life in ruin and tenuous prospects for the spiritual long journey home.

To explore more about Nancy's life, and the life of many other 1960s Hollywood scenesters, go to:

Who I'd like to meet:
People who are passionate about their place in the culture and the place of culture in them.

It'll help them. The problem with children today is that they need a taste of the real world.

And in regards to the message you sent me oh so long ago, I had a blast on my birthday, let there be no mistake.

Somehow I know I must have been a Sunset Stripper in another life. Instead, my story is a dirt colored, pine cone riddled, backwoods underground Southern novel. Thx 4 the add.
