I am extremely proud of my article in issue 36 about the films of Jean Cocteau, one of my favorite and most-inspirational-to-me artists. He was a true poet and considered everything he did --- films, novels, plays, ballets, paintings, and so forth --- to be different forms of poetry. If you have never seen his film "Beauty and the Beast," rent it with his "Orpheus" and prepare to be enchanted. The reason that I am so proud of it is because this was the first freelance article I ever pitched to a magazine --- and they not only accepted it, but made it their cover story.
