An FYI that Jonathan Frid has taken a brief break from his website to enjoy the summer. For those new to this board, JF has his own website at http://www.jonathanfrid.com. He celebrated his 80th birthday last year and is doing very well as you can probably tell from this photo taken just a few days ago in his backyard.

It's great to see this recent photo of Mr. Frid! Thank you, Nancy. I hope he has a very enjoyable summer. He looks good. (Same age as my father, too.) It would have been an honor to meet him at a DS festival. However, it is understandable that after so many years in the DS spotlight, he prefers his privacy today; and our respect for his wishes may be a way of honoring him.

Very nice sentiment, Vlad. Wish some other DS fans respected his privacy in the same way.

However, I can tell you not to rule out the possibility that he may attend a future DS festival.

The old Boy looks pretty good for 80!

Tell him for all of us that if he did show up
at, oh I don't know the 40th say, it would
thrill the pants of all of his fans!

Of course the idea of a room full of pantless DS fans may be too much for him

Glad to see this recent picture of Mr. Frid. I was thrilled to have met him in Crawfordsville in 2001. He mentioned that he hadn't had much opportunity to work in his garden due to being in a recent play in Canada and that any success that the roses in the garden had achieved was accomplished by nothing on his part (or something to that affect). There's another other picture on his website of him puttering on his computer that I like. He's the same that my mom was and I'm glad to see him looking so well.
