In 1989, Kathryn Keats took a lead role in the musical, The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Theater on the Square in San Francisco. This would be her final performance for 20 years. Someone asked the stage manager if “that was Ellen Munger?” Replying that this was a case of mistaken identity, Kathryn slipped out the back door, and realized that earning a living and pursuing her passion in music would not be possible. That year, Kathryn won a Critic’s Circle Award for best female performance, but would not be there to claim it. Click to read more.

It’s February. For most of us this means that our shiny New Years Resolutions are gathering dust. We’ve binged on chocolate and champagne over Valentines weekend, and we’re stuck in a slow trudge towards spring. The only light at the end of the tunnel is the hope of warm weather; and for those of us not on the West Coast, that damn groundhog said it ain’t coming anytime soon!

In honor of Black History Month, Gutsy Gals Inspire Me is proud to present the story of Ida B. Wells. Wells was a Civil Rights hero long before Rosa Parks or Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. While it is a travesty that her name isn’t universally known, we hope that each of you will pass on the tale of this true American icon.

Gutsy Girl in History: Grace Bedell
"Dear Sir...I hope you won't think me very bold to write to such a great man as you are..."
 
What comes to mind when one thinks of Abraham Lincoln? Well if you imagined the sixteenth President with a beard, think again.
