Some news: Just a quickie. I ran across Stefanie this evening at a performance of "Full Gallop", a one-woman comedy starring Brenda Vaccaro at the Coronet Theatre in Hollywood. She was accompanied by her Mom and a young couple I did not recognize. She and her Mom left soon afterward in Stefanie's Range Rover. She looked phenomenally lovely in a black pantsuit! I was trying to find out her age which led me to your website. Best I can figure, she is about 52, and she looks about 35 at close range! I'm in love!! Thanks to NK!

In the Hart to Hart episode Hit Jennifer Hart, you'll notice "Papuga Powers Himself" in the credits. Papuga was not a brother or a nephew. He was the parrot!
