For starters. Silhouette comes standard

inside a bus.
It also comes with a 3.1-liter V6 engine,

the world.
Of course. Silhouette’s technology also
extends into the realm of versatility Any or
all of the five rear seats can be removed
easily by one person to create up to 112.6

Royce/Charles Higham and Roy Mose
ley The worst kind of movie star biogra
phies—in ex-mistress Donaldson’s case,
a kiss-and-tell-but-don’t-tell-anything-in-
teresting memoir—these books essen
tially left the great movie idol’s reputa
tion unscathed. Which is more than can
be said for the reputations of the books’
authors.
THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH
by Ken Follett The erstwhile thriller au
thor leaves no stone unturned—not
many logs or clumps of dirt either—in a
nearly 1000-page tale of building a
church in England in the Middle Ages.

Revelations of the novelist’s alter ego
A PRAYER FOR OWEN MEANY
by John Irving The title character is a
doll-size man from New Hampshire who
thinks he is Christ and plays Little
League baseball. The consolation is that
Irving must have exhausted his supply of
wacko New Hampshirites by now and
can move on to Vermont next time.
LUST
by Susan Minot It’s hard to find fault
with the title, but this scrawny collection
of short stories—with an emphasis on
the short—indicates only that Ms. Minot
seems to have been having some uncom
plimentary thoughts about men lately
and that she is not always such an in
sightful writer as she was in her novel
Monkeys.
THE MUMMY
by Anne Rice Dear Ms. Rice: Since you
seem to have decided to spend your tal
ent—nobody said squander, mind you—
in writing all those novels about pro
found characters inspired by horror
movies, here is a list of some potential
subjects you might want to consider: the
Alligator People, the Wasp Woman, the
Creature from the Black Lagoon, the Hu
manoids from the Deep, the Amazing Co
lossal Man, Mothra, the Killer Shrews,
the Giant Leeches and—no doubt you
have these guys at the top of your list
—the giant homicidal bunnies that were
the featured menace in Night of the
Lepus.

is eyes were bloodshot, and he admitted to

feeling “a little lagged.” But just 12 hours af
ter returning from the Malta summit, where
he met with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev,
President George Bush was back at work. As is his rou
tine, he was up at 6 a.m., sipping coffee and reading
newspapers in bed with First Lady Barbara Bush. An
hour later he was at his burled walnut desk downstairs in

%
the Oval Office. The President worked through the
morning and into the early afternoon, skipping lunch.
Barbara Bush took a postbreakfast swim in the
White House's heated outdoor pool. She had a mid
morning appointment with industrialist Eugene Lang,
whose IHave a Dream Foundation gives disadvan

she went Christmas shopping at the pricey Mazza
Gallerie, where Mrs. Bush dropped $ 10 into a Salva
tion Army kettle. (Salvation Army bell ringers have
been banned from several Washington mails, making
her contribution a pointed gesture.)
At 1:40 P.M., just 20 minutes before the President’s
scheduled Cabinet briefing. People managing editor
Landon Y. Jones and Washington bureau chief Maria
Wilhelm were ushered into the Oval Office. A fire
crackled as the President and Mrs. Bush settled onto
one of a pair of off-white brocade sofas for a spirited
half-hour interview. At times the First Couple held
hands; at othertimes they tweaked each other with
gentle good humor. Excerpts of the conversation:

Mr. President, is the Cold War over?

If you mean tanks rolling into Hungary, then yes,
it’s over. But if you mean is there reason to have a de
fense force on either side, the answer is yes, there
probably is. And don’t take it from me. Take it from
Mr. Gorbachev too.

Americans are intensely curious about Gorbachev.

What insight can you offer about his character?
Well, he’s different from his predecessors, with

In April, Millie and her First Friend strolled down the White House South Lawn, while five of her newborn pups tailed them.

BB: Ineed yours actually.
Prove it.
GB: [Counting.] Let’s see, there’s
about $53. I’ve had it there for quite a
while. It’s a good question. Once in a
while you need something, and some
body here will go get it if something’s
broken or you need some batteries or
you need something personal.
BB: Ialways say that to George if
we’re going out. [In a stage whisper:]
“Do you have any money?” Just in case.
GB: For restaurants we do, we carry
cash for restaurants.

George gave me. They’re very pretty.
And he gave them to you on a special
occasion?
GB: Yes, I’m a romantic devil. Iforget
when it was. Ordinarily, we don’t give
to someone, “She’s wonderful. She
doesn’t spend a lot of money." And I
think, oooh, that’s just an invitation.
That’s not true. George is very generous.
Over the holidays you go shooting with
your friend Will Parish in Beeville, Tex

sportsman, but we wonder about

The President develops a thick skin
and he’s probably always had one with
regard to criticism. But, Mrs. Bush,
how do you react when you see things
like Doonesbury?
Idon’t understand Doonesbury, so
pick another example.
GB: Oh, she understands it at times.
BB: Idon’t think most people under
stand Doonesbury. Idon’t pay any atten

he’s the right man at the right time so I
don’t pay any attention. Do I get mad?

The two of you have done such a won

derful job of bringing out family values
in the White House. Yet at the same
time it must be distressing to you that
your daughter, Doro, and her husband,
Billy LeBlond, have separated. Can you
give us an idea of how your family
is coping with that?
GB: We’re blessed that we love both of
them. They're having marriage prob
lems, and that comes underthe heading
of their business. And so we counsel our
daughter, and we stay very close to Bil
ly’s parents, who are good friends of
ours. The last thing Doro and Billy need
is pontificating from either of us. But if
she needs somebody to hold her hand,
well, we’re there.

are his brothers and his sisters.
GB: We have big, strong families. And

If you had to give your Administration a

report card after your first year, what
kind of grades would you get?
Iwouldn’t particularly relish doing
that, but I’d say that in some depart
ments we’ve done very, very well. Still,
there’s an unfulfilled agenda. So if the
report card is graded by total accom
plishment, there’s plenty left to do. But I
think in the area of general handling of
foreign affairs, managing to get some
things like the ethics legislation, savings
and loans, and some other majorthings
through the Congress, why Ithink we’ve
done real well. But on the other hand
we haven't gotten the agenda complete
by a long shot. So Idon’t know how you
grade it. But Itake great pride in the way
the Administration is operating. We’ve
been relatively free of the kinds of
things that have burdened others, the
kind of infighting orthe kind of tryingto
make yourself look good to the detri
ment of somebody else. But we’ve got a
long way to go before Iwill feel satisfied
with the, quote, accomplishment, un
quote. So we’re just beginning. We’re
only one quarter of the way in.

efore the Joker, before Bruce Wayne, before
Guber-Peters, before Time Warner and
even before the merchandising, there was
first the Killer Smile. Wickedly arched eye
brows. Malevolent rolling eyeballs. Flashing teeth. Add
to that a clown’s makeup and a demonic laugh, and
you have the most compelling proof ever of George
Orwell’s dictum that, at 50, everyone has the face he
deserves. In eafman the 52-year-old Jack Nicholson
inhabited the Joker’s role with such fevered invention
that he stole the film and helped turn it into a
$250 million monster that’s on its way to becoming
Hollywood’s all-time box office champ. When the
Joker drops $20 million on greedy Gothamites, he
shrugs, “Don’t worry about me. I’ve got enough.” So
does Jack: Profit-sharing and merchandising provi
sions in his contract may bring him $20 mill or more
after the last Batman lunch box is sold in Kathmandu.
By the time the $24.98 Bafman video was rushed
out last fall, though, Nicholson was making news for a
different kind of performance. In November the actor
learned he had more than just a piece of the action at
Helena’s, the L. A. hot spot he partly owns. It was re
ported that Rebecca Broussard, 26, an ex-waitress
there, was due to bear a child by Jack next spring. A
month later, starlet Karen Mayo-Chandler, 28, used a
P/ay6oy pictorial to claim that she and Nicholson had
a torrid, months-long, pre-Fafmanaffair. Jack in the
sack, she said, was “a nonstop sex machine.” Anjel-
ica Huston, Jack’s longtime love, was said to be stung
by the news, and it wasn’t certain if their 15-year ro
mance could weather the alleged escapades.
Nicholson ignored the brouhaha and turned his tal
ents to finishing The Two Jakes, the 15-years-in-the-
gestating sequel to Chinatown. He is both star and di
rector of the film, which will be released next year.
After three decades and 40-plus movies, Nicholson
has become that rare public figure whose art permits
him to float, beloved and bankable, almost beyond
criticism or scandal. As Meryl Streep, his co-star in
Heartburn and Ironweed, has said; “He’s a serious ar
tist—I think he’s a master. He’s got a voracious appe
tite for the work. He’s never satisfied but he’s al
ways churning. It’s wild. There’s nobody out there
that far in the movies. Nobodyr^_ sS'S

you want to kick off your bedcovers and dance?
Mixing a wide-eyed awe of celebrities with a spicy
street sensibility, Arsenio, 33, has turned his syndicat
ed talk show into a cross-cultural encounter session.
Where else can you find rapper Tone-Ldc sharing a
couch with Fergie’s father? Or Bo Derek and Ursula
Andress chatting amiably about a man they’ve both
known in bed? Sure he strokes his guests with powder-
puff questions, but isn’t that the point? Everybody’s
relaxed. Add a backbeat and soon even the squarest
viewers feel they’re part of a TV version of Studio 54.
While getting a precocious start on his career by in
terviewing other kids in his basement when he was a
child, Arsenio was warned that it couldn’t be done.
Cleveland ghetto kids do not become talk show hosts.
He clung to his ambition, majoring in speech commu
nication at Kent State, but even then, he recalls, “My
guidance counselor was like, ‘Come on, wake up!’
My mom was even telling me I was crazy.” How could
they have guessed that in 1989 Arsenio, in $1,000
Italian suits, would be the one to finally give the MTV
generation a reason to stay home at night?
■ Although his show has passed both Sajak and Let-
terman in the ratings, someday, Arsenio realizes, his
rocket ride may end. But maybe not tomorrow, and
maybe not soon. “If Johnny can have a party for 27
years,” he says, “why can’t I?’

Millions of Northern
Californians asked each
other that question in the weeks after
the Big One of ’89. But there is one per
son whom no one needed to ask. Six-
year-old Julio Berumen was buried un
der several tons of concrete In a car
crushed by the collapse of 1-880 in Oak
land. Pulled from the freeway by coura
geous doctors in a harrowing procedure
that cost him his leg, Julio has since re
covered hearteningly—and is now the
54
symbol of the Bay Area’s rejuvenation.
“I’m getting my new leg! I’m getting
my new leg!’’ Julio shouted earlier this
month in the halls of Oakland’s Chil
dren’s Hospital. He could hardly contain
his excitement as he was fitted with a
prosthetic limb and a brace was placed
on his badly injured left leg. Julio
grasped the bars of a walker and took
the first steps of a new life. “Look at
me!’’ he cried. “Look at me!’’
Julio’s father, Pastor, 31, a construc
tion worker, grinned. After the death of
his wife, Petra, in the 1-880 collapse, and

the surgery required to repair the
crushed bones in the face of Julio’s sis
ter, Cathy, 8, it was the happiest mo
ment in many weeks for father and son.
Julio’s smile faded only when his physi
cal therapist decided he had done
enough. “Can’t Ikeep my leg on?’’ he
asked. “Then everyone can see it.”
That will have to wait until a few days
before Christmas, when Julio, using
crutches, should be able to walk out of
the hospital. But clearly the quake’s
pluckiest victim, like the city of San Fran

tank in California, where they
i
.
routinely play East-West war
games to sharpen their cyni
cism, peace broke out unexpectedly one
day. While maneuveringtheir imaginary
forces into position, both sides suddenly
found themselves acting with uncharac
teristic restraint. One commentator lat
er called it the “Gorbachev effect.” He
had good reason.
Like much of the world, even profes
sional skeptics seemed spellbound this
year by the former tractor driver from
Stavropol. As the Berlin Wall broke and
the old Eastern European party dictator
ships toppled, 58-year-old Mikhail Gor
bachev stood at the vortex, confounding
strategists, statesmen and often his own
allies.
Wherever he appeared, surprises fol-
I
lowed. In May his trip to Beijing brought
1 million demonstrators to Tiananmen
Square chanting for democratic reform.
West Germans filled the streets of Bonn
shouting “Gorby! Gorby!” during his visit
there in June, and by summer’s end his
namewastherallyingcry of pro-democra
cy demonstrators from Prague to East
Berlin. In December, Gorbachevvisited
the Pope and, after announcing that “the
world is on the threshold of an entirely new
era,” vowed to reestablish religious free
dom in his homeland. That same week he
moved on to Malta and the storm-tossed
summit with President Bush.
Gorbachev, of course, has always
moved quickly. Born to peasant parents
in a rural southern region of Russia, he
became his country’s youngest leader
since Joseph Stalin, when he rose to
power at age 54 in 1985. Facing an
economy near collapse under the bur
dens of a huge bureaucracy and enor
mous military expenditures, he pulled
Soviet troops out of Afghanistan,
pressed for arms reductions with his ad
versaries and proposed sweeping demo
cratic and economic reforms at home.
Though his economy still struggles
—leaving George Bush potentially pow
erful leverage at their next summit in
June—Gorbachev has proved himself a
gamesman nonpareil on the world stage.
And yet, when he is assessed for
1989, what he didn’t do may well prove
the most momentous. As the Commu
nist governments of Europe collapsed
this fall, no Soviet tanks rolled into
Prague or Berlin, no troops massed at
the borders. The Cold War had worn it
self out, and by doing nothing, Gorba

If you prefer the big screen, this Goodman is not
hard to find. This year he was a great blithe whale in
Sea of Love and a fire fighter in Steven Spielberg’s Al

again with Spielberg, to play a role that seems preor

Goodman’s personal life has been as fulfilling as
his professional one this year. In October he married
21-year-old Annabeth Hartzog, a student he met
while shooting Everybody’s All-American in New Or¬

 he earth is a living organism.
That startling hypothesis, pro
posed 20 years ago by British
chemist James Lovelock
moved to the center of public aware
ness in 1989. Named after Gaia, the
earth goddess of ancient Greece from
whom the gods were said to be de¬
scended, the theory states that earth is
a single giant creature in which teeming
millions of life-forms, as if directed by a
collective intelligence, collaborate with
inorganic forces to maintain the planet
as a healthy habitat for livingthings. If
verified. Lovelock’s vision would both
enlarge and to some extent revise Dar
win’s theory of evolution and at the
same time require a radical reexamina
tion of man’s role in the scheme of
things.
Scientists at first snubbed Gaia as ho-
listic humbug, but with the State of the
NASA
Earth shaping up as the compelling hu-
man issue of the ’90s, even staunch op
ponents had to admit that the theory
presented an ingenious new way of look-
ingat the world and an irresistible im-
pulse for fresh research.
Loveleck and his principal collabora
tor, microbiologist Lynn Margulis, mus-

biosphere. Fact: Though the sun’s out
put of energy has increased by 30 per-
cent over the last 3.5 billion years.
the earth’s average surface temperature
has held steady between 50° F and 68° F.
Explanation: COj retains heat in the at-
mosphere, but plants multiply as earth
warms, absorbing enough COj to cool
the planet off again. Without life, Gaians
estimate, earth would be as much as 80
degrees warmer. Fact: For 200 million
years earth’s oxygen level has held
steady at about 21 percent of the atmo
sphere—a matter of some importance,
since below 15 percent large animals
would suffocate and above 25 percent
the forests would ignite. Explanation:
Vegetable life, which generates the oxy
gen that sustains animal life, also gener
ates the methane that stabilizes the oxy-
gen supply at optimal levels.

It worft prove youte a man.
Mitjusti^t
prove youte mortal
If you’re a young
person, you’re going
to be faced with
something that can
change your life.
Cocaine.
You’ll have to
decide whether to do
it or not. And if others
are around, it’ll be
hard to “just say no!’
If you say “yes,” and
you’re lucl^^ the rush
will last 20 minutes
or so. If you’re not so lucky
the msh won’t stop.
Your blood pressure could
soar. Your heart might beat
out of control. You may have
a heart attack. You could get
a seizure, a stroke, or lapse
into a coma.
Or you might just stop
breathing altogether.
Think you can
control it?
Cocaine is extremely
addictive. Maybe more so
than heroin. If you smoke
coke—as freebase or crack—
you could get hooked from
the very first hit.
Why? Every coke high is
followed by a low To bring
yourself back up, you do
more coke. The highs don’t
get any better, but the lows
just get worse. You become
tired. Irritable. If you get
hooked, you’ll plunge into
depression, even paranoia.
You might even end up
committing suicide.
Think you can
control yourself?
Cocaine can alter brain
chemistry until you prefer it
over everything—food, water,
even sex. It could also make
you do things you wouldn’t
normally do.
One woman sold her baby
to buy coke. And a 14-year-
old killed his mother when
Partnership for a Drug-Free America
she tried to stop his
crack habit.
It may sound exag
gerated. Unbelievable.
You may think it could
never happen to you.
However, nearly
700 people died of
cocaine abuse last
year. 2-3 million are
addicts. And all these
victims have one thing
in common. They
didn’t think anything
would happen to them, either.
Grow up.
With cocaine, you never
know whether you’ll get
hooked or not. Or whether
you’ll die or not. And no one
in the world can tell you.
No doctor. No expert.
But when you face that
first line, you may be hearing
a lot of other things. Like
coke’s a fantastic trip. Or that
everybody who’s somebody

that it’ll make you a man.

glamour. But when was the
last time anyone so embod¬
ied the sheer joyoi evil as Panamani¬

when he’d pause to strike a hard-guy
pose for the cameras, Noriega
seemed to spend much of his time in
1989 gleefully pounding on lecterns,
^ 1
pumping his arms in triumph and
generally savoring the fruits of a bad
day’s work well done.
Given his love of tormenting the Unit-
i ed States, he had plenty of reasons to
gloat. After a federal grand jury indicted
Noriega on drug trafficking charges in
February 1988, U.S. officials confidently
predicted that he would soon be swept
from power. When that failed to happen,
American authorities imposed economic
sanctions on Panama designed to
cripple the country and trigger a pop¬
ular uprising. No luck there. With Wash¬
ington’s blessings, Pana¬
manian opposition
parties hoped to use
the national
elections

cronies in the government. In-
stead, the 51-year-old strong-
man unleashed his goon
squads, whose brutal televised
attacks on opposition candi-
dates, together with blatant bal-
lot fraud, ensured Noriega’s
victory. Then in October, rebel
military officers attempted a
coup, something American
leaders, notably President
Bush, had encouraged all along.

whose acne-pitted complexion
has earned him the withering nick
name Pineapple Face, triumphed, dis
dainfully scorning the efforts of the
“gringo piranhas” who “want to do away
with me.”
Handingthe Bush Administration a
humiliatingforeign-policy setback must
surely have pleased the general. Still,
there are signs of his growing appre-
hension. American officials contend
that discontent is on the increase in
Panama and that Noriega moves con
stantly, never staying in the same place
two nights in a row. They say that he is
so fearful of being poisoned that he al

iega doesn’t know who to

analyst in Washington. “Next
time there’s a coup, he’s a
dead man.” Indeed, any future
plotters will probably strike
hard and fast at Noriega; after
the failed October coup, he or-
dered the execution of scores
of dissidents suspected of tak-
ing part in the rebellion.
In November, word leaked
outthatthe Bush Administra-
tion had approved $3 million
for the Central Intelligence
Agency to recruit Panamanian
military men and exiles to take
another shot at toppling Nor
iega. Washington has also signaled that
it will soon impose a new set of econom
ic sanctions on the country. On the evi
dence so far, though, it will require
more than half measures and bureau
cratic blusterto be rid of this cunning
tyrant. Put it this way: In the interna

e is the virtual Rain Man of corporate fi
nance, a fiercely concentrated boy genius
adrenalized by playingthree-dimensional
chess with corporations as pieces. With
one revolutionary tactic—aggressively helping com
panies raise capital with high-yield “junk” bonds—
Michael Milken, 43, made $3 trillion available to
high-risk ventures, godfathering many new busi
nesses and touching off a frenzy of controversial
corporate takeovers. From 1984 to 1987, his own
cut of the action was $1.1 billion. In 1987 he set the
all-time record for Most Money Earned in a Single
Year by a Mortal—he was paid $550 million by his
employer, Drexel Burnham Lambert. That works out
to $62,785 an hour, year-round.
From that height, then, there was little to wait for but
his fall. It came this year in the form of a 98-count feder
al indictment on charges of racketeeringand securities
fraud. Despite the fact that his most notorious client,
Ivan Boesky, and his former employer, Drexel, have
pleaded guilty to similar felony counts, Milken says
he’s innocent. What is certain is that his fall brought to
an end a decade of deal making on Wall Street.
Friends of Milken say that the size of his income in
spired the puritan envy of federal prosecutors. And
there's no question that some top capitalists hated
him, fearing his boardinghouse reach. (Donald
Trump, on learning that Milken earned $550 million
in one year, said, “You can be happy on a lot less
money.”) Intriguingly, Milken did everything with
money except spend it. No breathtaking shopping.
No lust for fame. At Drexel he was known for his
worn-out shoes and was so keen on privacy he kept
his photo out of the firm’s annual report. Raised in
Encino, Calif., he returned thereafter attending the
Wharton School in Philadelphia and working a few
years in New York City to lead a quiet suburban life
with his onetime high school sweetheart, Lori, 42,
and their three children. Only since his indictment
has Milken taken any pains with his public image, al
lowing a few reporters a glimpse of his unostenta
tious home and stepping up his charitable donations,
which have now topped $350 million. Personal
wealth, he insists, has little to do with his machina
tions. “I think of myself as a doctor,” he has said. “So
many companies and people need help.” u

THE WORLD DOESN’T NEED ANOTHER SHAMPOO
WhyintheWorid?
Do any of these things
apply to you?
1. Shampoo frequently.
2. Blow dry your hair regu

3. Have a sensitive scalp.
4. Live or work in a dry ,

These are just some of
the factors that can contrib-
ute to a widespread
condition now referred
to as Dry Scalp.
What is Dry
Scalp?
The scalp is protected by a
very thin layer of skin called
the epidermis. One of the
main functions of the epi
dermis is to keep necessary
moisture in
the scalp,
and it’s this
moisture
that helps
keep it
smooth
and supple.
When this epidermal layer
becomes cracked and dry,

pike Lee does the write thing. He also does
the produce thing, the direct thing and the
act thing. And in Do the Right Thing, this
one-man band of cinema struck a chord
that reverberated through the nation. His was
the right film at the right time, embraced by public
and pundits alike as fhethingto talkabout.
Other movies you enjoyed or you didn’t. This one
you were foror against. Partisans saw in it a coura
geous call to conscience—a jeremiad against racism
that a complacent America would Ignore at its peril.
Naysayers condemned It as an invitation to violence,
an irresponsibly incendiary film whose race-riot end
ing might spur the real thing.
As it turned out, the only violence done was to Hol
lywood’s preconceptions about what people will pay
to see. Made for $6.5 million, Lee’s film about the
hottest day of the year on a Brooklyn block became
one of the hottest movies of the year, grossing $26
million.
“I think we made the most important film of 1989,”
says Lee, 32. Modest he’s not. Still, he’s cast against
type as a movie mogul; the only way this kid from
Brooklyn could make it into the big time was to climb
on his ego and pedal like hell.
The son of jazz composer Bill Lee (who scored
the film) and Jacquelyn Lee, a schoolteacher. Spike
graduated from Morehouse College and New York
University’s film school. He had to scrape together
the $175,000 to make his first feature, the 1986
sexual comedy She’s Gotta Have It. Now he’s got a ●
$10 million bankroll from Universal for his fourth
film, about a jazz musician. And he has come all this
way his way. He fills the screen with black faces and
hires black crews. And he criticizes such Holly
wood heavyweights as Eddie Murphy for not doing
the same.
Will the blandishments of Hollywood stifle Lee’s
street-smart Iconoclasm? He swears he’ll still shoot In
Brooklyn, still call his own shots. “There’s gonna be
politics in all my work,” says Lee. “I’m still makingthe
movies Iwant to make. □

T by a small child. The smile is attached at an odd angle, the

eyes are so far apart they could almost belong to different
people, and it’s hard to look at the nose without thinking of
Marvin Hagler. But it’s even harderto look at Ellen Barkin without
thinking of sex. She has a body that could stop the fighting in Beirut,
a voice that purrs (as one reporter put it) “like velvet rubbed the
wrong way,” and enough sensuality to set your tie on fire. Tough as a
Rock queen, vulnerable as a lost child, this 35-year-old nonesuch is
the most improbable sex goddess since the young Simone Signoret
(whom she eerily resembles), and in 1989 she made more converts
than oat bran. In Sea of Love, a surprise smash expected to gross
$60 million in the U.S. alone, Barkin mounts an erotic assault on Al
Pacino that rivals anything seen on Wrestlemania; in Johnny Hand
some, playing a spider woman who devours the males she mates,
the lady almost persuades us that the world’s well lost for lust.
What makes Bar(dn so persuasive is the shimmering interplay be
tween an impassioned intelligence and that mysterious film noir
face. We’re dealing here with an actress, not a sex kitten. “Acting,”
Barkin says, “is a matter of giving away secrets You let [the au¬
dience] crawl inside you for a little while.” Inside Barkin’s psyche,
audiences sense a street-smart kid from the Bronx who clawed her
way up. Brutally informed by teachers that “I wasn’t pretty enough”
to be an actress, she hung on to her dream for a decade before get
ting her first role in a feature film. Five years later The Big Easy
(1987) made hera star, but stardom hasn’t softened her hard New
York edges. Nor has a year of marriage to Irish actor Gabriel Byrne
and two months of motherhood—in October she had an 8-lb. baby
boy. Hollywood scripts, she says, are “big crap or lesser crap.
Greatness Idon’t hope for.” She refuses to perform with “actors
that Idon’t respect.” On set she fights like a guttersnipe for her cre
ative vision. “I scream all the time at somebody,” she admits, “my
self included.” Most directors say the gain is well worth the pain. D

Who wouldn’t love a life in public service? As
virtual queen of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development, Deborah Gore Dean, 35,
had clout too: From 1984 to 1987 herofficedis-
bursed many millions of taxpayers' dollars ear¬
marked for low-income housing projects. In fact, in
vestigators charge that Dean hosted a bacchanal of
influence peddling and greed among Republican real
estate developers and their friends. It was all so excit¬
ing, nobody remembered to tell the homeless to
“Come on down.”
Duringthe summer, the HUD scandal metastasized
into a mess that rivaled Iran-contra. Dean (with dem
onstrators at her home, left) denies any wrongdoing
and blames her boss, Samuel Pierce. He blames her.
Otherwise both have retired into the provocative si
lence of the Fifth Amendment. As congressional hear
ings loom. Dean’s lawyers are rumored to be seeking
her immunity in exchange for—in her words—“one
hell of a testimony.’
The first question to ask her is. How in the world
did you getthat job? Well, power abhors a vacuum,
and there certainly was one at HUD—Secretary
Pierce, a Cabinet-level hologram, was often secreted
in his office watching All My Children on TV. Into the
breach stepped his executive assistant, Deborah
Dean, who controlled the paper flow and knew howto
use his autopen. The politically connected scion of

stood the story of Pete Rose, One moment
Rose was baseball’s hardest-charging boy of summer, a
hustling Charlie who once said he would “run through
hell in a gasoline suit to keep playing.” The next mo
ment, after tripping over his own hubris. Rose signed an
agreement that banned him from baseball “for life” for
apparent violations of the league’s rules against gam
bling. In terms of absolute distance, the national pas
time hadn’t seen such a precipitous fall since the Black
Sox scandal of 1919; all that was missing was a tow
headed fan to plead, on cue, “Say it ain’t so, Pete.”
So it was, but so, Peter Edward Rose fervently hopes,
it may not always be. Although Rose’s honor-above-all
nemesis. Baseball Commissioner A. Bartlett Gia-
matti—whose death one week after the case was set
tled added immeasurably to the drama’s tragic reso
nance—had produced a 225-page report in which nine
people said that the former Cincinnati Reds manager
bet on baseball, the accused claims that most of the ev
idence against him comes from former associates with
various axes to grind. In his resignation agreement.
Rose, 48, neither admitted nor denied guilt, and he re
tained the right to appeal his untouchable status after
one year. The man with the most hits in baseball
(4,256) seems to understand that his only chance of
ever reaching the Hall of Fame is to make amends to
game and country for mucking about with national my
thology. After months of public denial, he now admits
to “a serious gambling problem” and has been seeing a
psychiatrist twice a week. “This is a tough fight for
me,” he says, “but I’ve always adjusted to battles.” D

together well. The lady Is a genetic mas
terpiece, the definitive American beauty.
Her 31-year-old body is gym-trim yet
subtly voluptuous, her face a sculptured meadow of It
delights: elegant jawline, eyes like wet sapphires, bee-
stung lips to die for. But for almost a decade, Pfeiffer
has labored to conceal her looks and reveal her tal
ent. In Scarface she offered herself as a decadent
rich bitch who, as one reviewer put it, “powdered her
nose from the inside.” In Married to the Mob, peering
through a big, black giggle wig, she displayed a neat
knack for peppery punch lines (“Everything we wear,
eat or own fell off a truck! ”). And in Dangerous Liai
sons, playingthe victim in an age d'ordrama of serial
, seductions, she presented a portrait of impassioned
purity that won her an Oscar nomination.
It was only in 1989, skills secure and talents ap
proved, that Michelle the sex bomb decided to deto
nate. Cast as a small-time chantootsie in The Fabu-
ious Baker Boys, she slipped into a blood-red, thigh-
slit velvet sheath, slithered onto a gleaming black
grand piano and, buttocks fired up to a slow, rolling
boil, writhed through a rendition of “Making Whoopee”
that well and truly blistered that piano lid. Michelle
wore knee-pads in rehearsal and reports, “My elbows
were bruised, and Ialways had to think about not flash
ing.” But the effect is sizzling. Sa/rer Soys certified the
lady in red as 1990’s best bet for superstardom.
Heady prospects for a kid who grew up in Midway
City, Calif., “singing to the garden hose and pretend
ing Iwas Elvis Presley.” In herteens, she recalled,
“I was the beach bunny... into all kinds of drugs.”
Now she’s obsessed with work. Russia House has not
yet wrapped in London, and already Pfeiffer is prop
ping for an interracial romance called Love Fieid. Suc
cess has enhanced her professional confidence
(“Now Ican have blowups on the set”) but not her in
timate encounters. The love life of the love goddess is
a sometime thing. Since her divorce from actor Peter
(thirtysomething) Horton, she has lived alone with
her two dogs, Ben and Sasha (shown here). “Dating is
like a disaster. I’m all or nothing.” With John Maiko-
vich, her co-star in Liaisons, it was all. Now it’s some
thing undefined with someone unnamed. “What
makes me happy,” Michelle once explained, “is to be
loved. But it’s hard to achieve.” Go figure. □

 n some ways it seemed that Eliza
I
beth Morgan’s drama had reached
its denouement on the rainy night in
September when she walked past
the gates of the District of Columbia Jail,
where she had spent the longest 25
months of her life. Imprisoned for refus
ing to reveal the whereabouts of her
young daughter, Hilary—who, Morgan
says, had been raped repeatedly by her
ex-husband, Eric Foretich—the 42-year-
old plastic surgeon had won a battle that
only a zealot could have waged. It was in
August 1987 that Morgan had sent Hi¬
lary, then 5, into hiding rather than com
ply with a judge’s order that the child
continue unsupervised visits with her fa
ther. As the months passed and Morgan
remained behind bars, her case had be
come a national cause celebre: a mother
jailed for trying to protect her child. In
the eyes of her supporters, she had been
martyred by the very system from which
she had sought justice. In the end, Mor
gan was freed by a federal law—passed
by Congress on her behalf—that put a
one-year limit on jail sentences for civil
contempt in the District of Columbia.
Photograph by Horry Benson
Since her release, however, the pitch
of the drama has only heightened. In Oc
tober, less than 12 hours after it was re
ported that Hollywood producer Linda
Otto had agreed to pay an estimated
$250,000 for the rights to Morgan’s sto
ry, a mysterious fire severely damaged
the empty Fairfax County, Va., home
that belonged to her parents, William
and Antonia, who disappeared along
with Hilary in 1987. (Said Morgan:
“Whoever set it is out of control in a big
way.’’) Days later, one of Foretich’s pre
vious wives, Sharon Sullivan, filed a
97
 $2 million civil suit alleging that he
had sexually abused their daughter,
Heather, now 9, as well as Hilary.
Foretich, 46, a Virginia-based oral sur
geon who adamantly denies molesting
his daughters, immediately fired back.
He held a press conference announcing
the formation of the Help Hilary Home
Trust to finance the search for his
daughter. He aiso presented his case on
Donahueand later took his crusade to
Engiand, where he believes Hilary is liv-
ingwith her grandparents.
Morgan will not immediately return
to the thriving practice she abandoned
when she went to prison; instead she
will concentrate on working on the TV
film with Otto—herself an outspoken
survivor of sexual abuse—and on fund
ing her costly legal battles. She must
fight three libel and conspiracy suits
filed by Foretich, and her lawyers are
pressing the courts to block his access
to their daughter. “My job is to find
money to keep the war going until Hi

her legal campaign, she is hoping that
Otto’s docudrama wili bring public
pressure on D.C. Superior Court Judge
Herbert Dixon, who, after hearing con
flicting testimony from expert witness
es on both sides, refused to end
Foretich’s unsupervised visits with Hi
lary. “The movie is part of getting Hi
lary protected,” she says. “If the
\: \ courts had done that, there would be
no need to tell her story.”
These days, Morgan’s greatest
source of comfort has been Federal
Appeals Court Judge Paul Michel, 48, a
divorced father of two to whom she be
came engaged in the spring of 1987.
On Dec. 2, Morgan wed her “knight-de-
fender,” as she calls him, in a quiet
ceremony at St. Alban’s Church near
their apartment in Washington. In the
front pew were Hilary’s favorite toys—
two stuffed rag dolls and a plush ser
pent—that served as her stand-ins.
Says Morgan: “It’s a safe assumption
that she approves of the wedding. She
feels safe with Paul. He’s the father
she always wanted.” Morgan makes no
secret of the fact that she is in indirect
touch with Hilary, but that contact,
she admits, is bittersweet. “I want to

 t takes a politician to turn

I
an artist into a martyr. So
the fact that photographer
Robert Mapplethorpe was
made the center of the year’s
most incendiary artistic battle
was due less to the power of his
art than to the prominence of
his foe: Sen. Jesse Helms. It
was Helms who denounced
Mapplethorpe for pornography
and set off a controversy that
threatetied to bushwhack fed¬
eral funding of the arts. The
iconoclastic Mapplethorpe
might have enjoyed the uproar
over artistic freedom if not for
the fact that he was dead ■a ■
victim of AIDS in March at the
age of 42.
At issue was a national tour of
Mapplethorpe’s astonishingly
vivid photographs, which in¬
clude dramatic portraits (like
Ken Moody and Robert Sher¬
man, 1984, right) and graphi
cally homoerotic scenes. Mapplethorpe’s illness and
artistic power had already given him macabre, heroic
stature in the gay community. But even though his ex
hibit drew crowds in Philadelphia and Chicago, public
outrage, stridently voiced by the senior Senator from
North Carolina, was growing over federal support of
such art. Fearful about future funding, the director of
Washington, D.C.’s Corcoran Gallery of Art abruptly
canceled an appearance of the show—and angry art
ists withdrew two exhibits booked for the gallery.
Helms fired back with an amendment, revised and
passed by Congress, banning subsidies for‘‘obscene’
works, including those showing homoeroticism and
other “sex acts.”
Part of Mapplethorpe’s legacy was his last self-por
trait (left), which seemed to emphasize that after he
was gone, homosexuality, AIDS and his art would re
main. That was a likelihood Jesse Helms could not
legislate away. The show is now in Hartford. □

ive her a second to catch her breath, and
Donna Karan will tell you that the constant
buzz around her—the reporters, retailers
and customers who hover ever-eager to af
firm their devotion—is, well, a lot of fuss over noth
ing. “Okay, not nothing,” she concedes. But still, too
much ado for Karan’s taste. “All this is silly,” she
says. “I don’t get it. I’ve been designing for years.”
This year, however, Karan, the 41-year-old designer
with a few (self-professed) pounds to lose and a Long
Island accent she couldn’t shake even if she wanted
to, became the reigning queen of American fashion.
“Donna doesn’t just have a customer,” says longtime
Karan friend Dawn Mello, an executive vice president
of Gucci. “It’s more like a super fashion cult.”
What’s the draw? Karan, once a junior designer at
Anne Klein, launched her own ready-to-wear line in
1985. She won an instant following by appealing to
America’s modern businesswoman—the exec with lots
of cash but no time to spare for shopping. Her clothes
looked nothing like Brooks-Brothers-for-women. They
were seven easy pieces that managed to be profes
sional andfeminine, flattering even when draped over
10 “extra” pounds. At more than $1,000 fora jacket,
yes, they were also expensive. So Karan launched her
crowning coup last January with DKNY, moderately
priced menswear-inspired separates. They wear like
old favorites from the back of the closet but in fact
come straight off the store rack. DKNY includes the
kind of things every woman wants but can rarely find: a
faded pair of khakis, the perfect white T-shirt, a boxy
blazer. The idea for the clothes evolved, Karan says,
because she was sick of wearing her husband’s jeans:
“They were either old or didn’t fit. And anyway, they

chet of the Karan label at a somewhat more affordable
price—a blazer costs about $400.
In its first year the line pulled in a bank-boggling
$58 million. “I guess Ihit a nerve,” says Karan. “This
isn’t about fashion. It’s just about being a woman and
needing clothes.” The consummately wearable back-
to-basics collection, and the queen’s ransom it
brought in, has secured her happy reign. Well, not en
tirely happy. “The worst part of this success,” she
grumbles, “is there’s never time to have any fun.”
Somehow, we doubt that. □

Saldana. “She’s slept through the night since the first
day we brought her home,’’ says Saldana, 35, of her
4-month-old daughter, Tiana Saldana Peters. “This is
the best time in my life.” f?i
Last June the actress and her husband, actor Phil
Peters, were considerably less blissful as they con
templated the release of Arthur Richard Jackson,
now 54, the Scottish drifter whose 1982 knife attack
on Saldana nearly took her life. Shockingly, prison of
ficials were obligated, for complicated legal rea
sons, to schedule Jackson for June parole even
though he had continued to threaten to kill Saldana.
Two weeks after the People story, the actress re¬
ceived good news: Jackson had staged a window
breaking tantrum in the prison, behaviorthat allowed
his warders to stall his release until next March. Then,
California’s legislature passed a new law that may
because of Jackson’s continued threats, keep him be

unconstitutional—Saldana continues to hope for the

Still scarred by her experience, Nussbaum
has met with other battered women.
T Oscar sleeps with the fissures. At
least they’re on his mind a lot. Oscar, a
9-inch exotic fish who lives at Califor
nia’s Corona Del Mar High School, won a
reputation for predicting earthquakes
when he began swimming on his side
shortly before three different rumbles
since 1987. At least so claimed Oscar’s
keeper, biology teacher Ron Schnitger,
54. Trouble was, Oscar’s reputed talent
rattled some folks, and after our story
appeared last September, he started
112
getting death threats. “1 think it’s the
work of a cult,” says Schnitger, who
quickly took the fish home for safekeep
ing. Then the Bay Area earthquake
struck, and sure enough, says
Schnitger, Oscar was in his classic fore
cast position just 10 minutes before
hand. Now, happily, the piscine predic
tor is back in school and his old tank
once again. Which is just as well, says
Schnitger. “My wife said he splashed too
much water on the floor.”
◄ She lives quietly now, close to the pri
vate psychiatric clinic near Katonah,
N.Y., where she staged her reentry into
society. The TV-movie deal has fallen
through for Hedda Nussbaum,47. CBS
says merely that negotiations for her di
ary “have ceased.” It is, perhaps, an un
derstandable reaction to the horrific
revelations that emerged during the 12-
week trial of Nussbaum’s common-law
husband. New York City lawyer Joel
Steinberg, 48. Convicted of first-degree
manslaughter in the fatal beating of
their adopted 6-year-old daughter, Lisa,
Steinberg was sentenced to a 25-year
prison term and is now at the Clinton
Correctional Facility in Dannemora, N.Y.
Although Nussbaum's face showed that
she, too, had suffered beatings, her con
fessed drug abuse, which may have ren
dered her unable to protect her daugh
ter, prompted some to blame her in part
for Lisa’s death. They still do, apparent

announced plans to exhibit nature pho
tographs taken by Nussbaum, then
abruptly canceled the show, reportedly
after receiving death threats.
A Thomas Root, whose plane crash in
July sparked one of the summer’s
stranger mysteries, still hasn’t quite re
gained the controls. The Washington,
D.C., lawyer claims he suffered a carbon
monoxide blackout while piloting his
Cessna, then flew on autopilot for four
hours until running out of gas over the
Caribbean. The questions began
when he was plucked from the ocean
with an unexplained gunshot wound to
his stomach. There was speculation of a
botched suicide or drug smuggling, but
Root, 36, denied any shenanigans and
said that a pistol he carried in his glove
compartment had probably fired on im
pact. In October federal investigators
dropped their drug investigation for lack
of evidence but have kept Root ground
ed for refusing to release records from a
psychiatric interview. He has now de
clared bankruptcy and, after making a
token payment on the $50,000 debt he
owes his landlord, has moved out of his
Washington, D.C., law offices. Says the
erstwhile pilot: “The moral of this story
is, ‘Don’t let anything bizarre happen to
you on a slow news day.’ ”
When Oscar gives folks a fishy sideways
glance, the earth moves, says Schnitger.

friend. Lynda Franchino of Dennis,
Mass., read the story about David in
People (May 15) and immediately
showed it to her son James, 9, who had
been born with the same impairment.
Lynda had often told James that there
were other children like him, but when
he asked where, she recalls, she
could only say: “I don’t know, but Iknow
they’re out there.” The boys have now
had two visits together, talk regularly by
phone and have promised to be friends
forever. “I know I’m not alone now,”
says James. Says the delighted David:
“Knowing him has made me feel better.
Before, Ithought Iwas the only one.”

Thanks to People, David Able, far left, and

James Franchino became best pals.

January we told how his owner, Nebras

the impaired bird get around. As soon as
Andy had mastered his strut, however,
he began yearning to hear the patter of
webbed feet around the family nest.
Fleming, 67, concocted some tennis
shoes with tiny cleats so that Andy could
successfully grasp his sweetheart, Polly
Goose. Polly thought the idea was pretty
featherbrained. So did Andy. “It didn’t
work,’’ reports Fleming. “He never even
tried.’’ Undaunted, Flemingthen bought
two goslings for the pair to adopt, and
this time the plan worked; the would-be
parents took one gander and started
honking happily. Nowthe babies have
grown as big as the parents, and “I’ve let
a lady 'cross town have ’em,’’ says Flem

ploy again this spring. With the paternity

weeks, the strike for democracy, begun
by 3,000 students in the heart of Bei-

swelled into a passionate, peaceful bri-
gade of more than a million. Their soli-

INSPIR
GREG LEMOND vividly recalls the last, *
breathtaking sprint of the 1989 Tour de
France, the one that left French cyclist
and race leader Laurent Fignon in the Pa-
risian dust and earned the 28-year-old
LeMond his second Tour crown. “I didn’t
think,” he said afterward. ‘‘I just rode.’
By not thinking, the American, during an
almost spiritual 26 minutes and 57 sec-
onds, had engineered one of the most
memorable moments in recent sports
history: He had overcome Fignon’s seem-
ingly insurmountable 50-second lead and
won the grueling 23-day, 2,542-mile race
by eight seconds, the narrowest margin
in the event’s 86-year history. The fact
that LeMond hadn’t won a major contest
since suffering a near-fatal gunshot
wound while hunting in 1987 made his
feat all the more amazing. How did he do
it? ‘‘I never stopped believing Icould do
it,” he said, making believers of us all.
Greg LeMond was uncannily unbeatable
on the last leg of the Tour de France.

the Berlin Wall, ugly and un-

So who cared if the deal was a tad tacky?
In 1989 some rich and famous people lived
by a Golden Rule: Take the money and run!
Did they really think nobody would notice?

$2,900 in his bank account.
Which helps fans forgive him
for popping out of a suitcase

the Trump shuttle.

Ex-Beatle—

Paul McCartney, whose old
band, the Beatles, recorded
“Money (That’s What I

deal with Visa to promote his
1990 U.S. tour should do
time back in the U.S.S.R. “I
don’t see it as a sellout,”
says McCartney. “Anyone
who does ought to live in
Russia. This is a capitalist
country, after all.”

“They smoke like chim

ards also worries—all the
way to the bank—about the
propriety of going the spon
sorship route. “It’s a very
touchy subject,” he says.
The World’s Other
Greatest Rock
Band—$30 million
Explained guitarist Peter
Townshend of his decision to
reconvene The Who and tour
after a seven-year layoff:
“Somebody in the end said
to me, ‘Well, what would you
do it for? What would be a
price that you’d go out and
endanger your hearing and
push yourself closer to that
inevitable knee opera
tion ... ?’ [And] the price I
named was one million five
hundred thousand pounds,
after tax.’’ Most of the mon
ey came from ticket and T-
shirt sales; Miller beer con
tributed as a partial sponsor.
Suave Leading
Man—$2 million to
$5 million
He’s handsome, he’s manly
and, until this month, he
was a virgin—at least in
America. Paul Newman,
who had previously done
commercials in Japan and
Spain, decided that he liked
the color of American Ex
press’s money and agreed
to promote the company
in the U.S. In addition to
wads of cash, Newman will
get “creative control’’ of
advertisements.
Journalist—

Linda Ellerbee built a ca
reer on integrity and wit,
which may explain why
some found her series of
Maxwell House coffee com

come. They take their turn at bat—and they
strike out in a major-league way, leaving the
field littered with the peanut shells and soda
cans of their once lofty careers and reputations.
It was, again, a banner year for mis-hits, run-ins
and errors. Here’s our 1989 All-Star team:
Zsa Zsa Gabor struck out swinging.
Steve Garvey kept swinging—with too many
misses.
Former HUD Secretary ‘‘Silent Sam” Pierce
went quietly, humming the Fifth Amendment all
the way to the lockers.
Sean Young raised her battling average and
lowered her career chances in a well-publicized
rhubarb with James Woods.
Morton Downey Jr. got a bad haircut, worse
ratings and—finally—the hook, relieving a nation
of Mort-ified TV viewers.
Jim Bakkerand Leona Helmsiey complained
loudly about the umpiring as they were thumbed
out.

Adnan Khashoggi, with the best arms in the

majors, still spent time in the (bull)pen.
Cold fusion in a jar, the creation of phenoms
B. Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann, turned
out to be about as productive as a fission trip.
Rob Lowe’s highlight film showcased his ca
reer in the minors.
Jackie Mason made a bad pitch in the New
York City mayoral race and then fowled out on
prime time with Chicken Soup.
Capt. Joseph J. Hazelwood, skipper of the
Exxon Valdez, was too slick for his own—and
Alaska’s—good.
Joseph Stalin, wherever he is, couldn’t have
missed the millions of voices, in dozens of lan
guages, emphatically saying, ‘‘It ain’t so, Joe.”
Finally, former political powerhouses and fel
low Texans Jim Wright and John Tower Jr. heard
their peers declaim the immortal and dreaded
words, ‘‘ YerrrrrrrrrrOUJW”
And so, another season ends. It is time to qui
etly leave the Field of Bad Dreams. Soon, the
groundskeepers will be here, cleaning up the de
bris, putting down new turf and painting fresh
baselines. Next season begins immediately.
Who’s up first? □

lectable Di! How could we do a year-end issue with
out you? But Di—darling Di—you let us down in
1989. No scandal. No hint of scandal. NOT EVEN A
RUMOR OF A HINT OF A SCANDAL!! All you did was
your job. Let’s talk about that instead. You fulfilled
276 official engagements (48 overseas), including
more than 100 charity events and hospital visits.
And you raised Wills and Harry. That’s nice, Di.
We’re happy foryou. Really. But it doesn’t help us.
We’re doing our best, Di. But you have to work with
us, okay? See you next year.

Di checks the troops.
