When I met Joan Rivers in San Diego, she could not have been more gracious. I worked security for one of her shows. We all miss you so very much Joan. You weren't done.
I sincerely hope that rumor that she was murdered for outing Michele Obama as being trans isn't true. If so, what a complete, needless travesty. She was at her prime, giving so much to the world, in so many different ways.
The nicest lady. Met her in a hotel elevator and said "wow, those are GREAT heels!" She said thank you, she was in a hurry, etc. Then a minute later she comes running down the hall and gives me a hug (I was a kid) and says "you have an eye for gorgeous, don't lose it!" and ran off. Love her!!
Around 1979, a Sorority at my College had a “mystery auction”. I won one of Joan’s books that was still in the mailing envelope, showing her return address. I sent her a letter, and she was nice enough to respond back!
She must have been very smart I think she created an inquisitively attractive alternative face to the one she was born with...no mean feat. She was the most attractive female on that show.
