    “Gypsy” is one of my favorite musicals (not just because I got to play Mazeppa–though that doesn’t hurt).

    Did you see that the Patti LuPone production may be coming to London’s West End?

    My new book “Lady of Burlesque – The Career of Gypsy Rose Lee” is currently available to pre-order on Amazon.com

    This is a photo-filled chronological account of Gypsy’s entire career.

    My first book “Miss Peggy Lee: A Career Chronicle” can also be ordered on Amazon.com

    Both are published by McFarland. The top publisher of reference books in the US.

    Sincere-Lee,
