WHILE THIS REVISED HOMAGE TO HANDSOME HUNKS PAST AND PRESENT MAY BE A BIT OF âTONGUE-IN-CHEEK,â CAMPY FUN, THE WOMAN WHO EDITED AND PUBLISHED THIS MAGAZINE DESERVES A LEGITIMATE âSHOUT-OUTâ OF HER OWN.Â
RONA BARRETT PUBLISHED AND EDITED SEVERAL MAGAZINES IN THE 1970s AND EARLY 80s, ALONG WITH MAKING NUMEROUS APPEARANCES ON VARIOUS NEWS PROGRAMS AND HOSTING HER OWN TV SPECIALS. SHE HELPED BRING LEGITIMACY TO THE THEN NICHE-MARKET OF CELEBRITY JOURNALISM, EXPANDING ITS ROLE IN OUR CULTURE AND RE-DEFINING EXISTING PARAMETERS OF BOTH PRINT AND TELEVISED ENTERTAINMENT REPORTING. INDEED, ANYONE WHO WAS ANYONE GLADLY TALKED TO âMS RONA,â AND YOU KNEW HER INTERVIEWS REALLY âGOT TO THE HEART OF THE MATTER,â AVOIDING THE USUAL VACUOUS QUESTIONS AND FLUFF APPROACH ALL-TOO MANY INTERVIEWS ADOPTED AT THE TIME.Â
ALTHOUGH NO LONGER WORKING IN ENTERTAINMENT MEDIA, MS RONA HAS LOST NONE OF HER WIT, SUBTLETY, CHARM, AND INSIGHT, STILL USING HER ENERGY, INDOMITABLE SPIRIT, AND FEISTY VOICE IN OTHER AREAS, INCLUDING SENIOR ADVOCACY. IF THERE HASNâT BEEN A FULL-FLEDGED DOCUMENTARY ON HER LIFE AND CAREER, I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE!
SO, MS RONA, I SALUTE YOU!
