Just From Nancy…

When I was just ten I had to go to bed at 8:00 sharp. This was particularly frustrating on Tuesday nights when “The Red Skelton Show” was on. I begged, pleaded, and cajoled my mom into letting me stay up to watch him. Finally, she agreed. I would slip out of bed and tip-toe downstairs, leaving my younger sister snoring, feeling special because I had plotted to stay up to watch Red Skelton with my parents!

Red was a master at comedy and took such delight in telling witty anecdotes. But what I really admired about him was that he thoroughly loved what he was doing and this made a huge impression on me.

So…my mom’s birthday was approaching and I decided I wanted to get Red’s autograph for her. I wrote him a letter, telling him that I was ten years old and that I was the clown of my family, and I shared a goofy joke with him. I told him that I would love two autographs, one for mom, and one for me. Then I waited.... and waited.... and waited, checking the mailbox every day.

Finally, after two months, a large manila envelope arrived. I tore the thing open and not only did Red send me the two autographs as requested, but he signed them in magic marker! And guess what? They were smeared, and I was totally convinced he did the smearing--that was so cool!!!

Pound per pound, Springfield sports journalists don’t give “the naked mole rat” much of a chance, but he’s got some quick moves they say.

Let’s all go to the beach!

On Sunday, June 29th, Nancy packed beach towels, SPF 50 sunscreen, picnic goodies, water, and her kids, Jack and Lucy, and headed off to the Santa Monica beach for the Hollywood Celebrity Centre’s annual “Way to Happiness Club” clean-up. This efficient, non-profit organization demonstrated the tenet “Safeguard and Improve Your Environment.” There was an incredible turnout and with plastic trash bags and rubber gloves (for the gunky–yucky stuff!) they proceeded to comb the beach for trash, and left with a smile on their faces.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS

• The15th Season of The Simpsons, premieres November 9, 2003.

• Rugrats, All Grown Up, premieres November 14,

2003. • The Simpsons segment of “Inside The Actors

Studio” was nominated for an Emmy to be presented September 21st on Fox TV.

• The Simpsons and Kim Possible were nominated for daytime Emmy Awards.

• Nancy’s upcoming University Lectures: September 13th, at Duke University, and September 25th at William Rainey Harper College in Palatine, Illinois.

Rugrats,All Grown UpOn July 31st 2003, Nancy and the huge cast of the

popular animation franchise, The Rugrats, began

recording the first episodes of Rugrats, All Grown

Up. This zany new spinoff of the popular original

Nickelodeon show will premiere Nov. 14th, 2003. All

Grown Up mania began in a July 2001 TV special in

which the infant and toddler characters were given

a chance to peer ten years into their future. Yikes!

Who would’ve known? The “tweenagers” are the

same adorable Rugrats that we all know and love,

and Chuckie, Nancy’s cute red-haired character, is

still a big old worrywart.

FOX TV held a cocktail party at the notorious Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills on Wednesday July 16th as the sun set on Loma Vista Drive. The scene was a “mixer” attended by talent and executives from various FOX TV shows, and Greystone was the perfect setting for an industry palaver, and also for… murder. Nancy plotted to sneak into the haunted Mansion to find out what the mystery was all about, but alas, she could not get past the hulking security guards. The solid stonewalls supposedly recall the dark night of February 16th, 1929, when Hugh Plunkett shot and killed Edward L. Doheny Jr. (the only son and heir of the fabulously wealthy oilman Edward L. Doheny Sr.) and then turned the gun on himself. And as the scary story goes, their earthbound spirits (spelled ghosts) have been roaming the halls ever since.

Dear Fans,

There have been some whispers for quite awhile about establishing a “Nancy Cartwright Fan Club.” So here we are, ready to give it a smidgen just to kick start it. We are announcing an official essay contest to pick a “president” for the fan club. The essay is to be entitled: “Why I Want to be President of Nancy Cartwright’s Fan Club.”

All you need to do is write a one page (typed) essay (don’t worry, it won’t be graded) and tell Nancy why you think you are the best person for the job. It’s simple! The position will entail staying in touch with Nancy’s career, setting up and maintaining a fan site on the Web, and ensuring other fans are well-informed of her activities. Nancy will give you lots of cool stuff to put on the site, including current happenings, interviews, fun games, photos, news and some special offers (as in perks). Let’s see, rules… Hmmm. Okay, you must be over the age of… well, actually there are no age restrictions, but you should be computer savvy and have a good net connection or you won’t have much fun, and get your parents approval if you are under 18 years of age. Only those who think they would really like to have a fun game and support Nancy as her “#1 Fan” need apply. Send email entries to: [email protected]

We’ll announce the winner in the next newsletter and on Nancy’s Web site! We can’t wait to meet you, good luck!

Fan Club Essay…

The need for speed!

Ready, set…go NASCAR!Nancy and her Executive Assistant, Janelle Hynes, locked down the safety straps for 30 high-speed laps, with the Richard Petty Driving Experience at California Speedway, courtesy of Turner Sports Interactive. Turner invited Nancy to her second tour behind the wheel of the real NASCAR deal. This time she was flying solo, heading into turn three at a cool 158.2 mph just like the big boys. “It was so cool!” said Nancy. “I mean hot! It must have been over 130 in that car, but you forget about that and just put the pedal to the metal and take off!” Perhaps a second career? We think not. Anyway, Janelle turned in the fastest overall time of all the racers that day! You go, girls!

Daws Butler, The Inspiration

On July 31st at the Glendale Public Library, devoted fans, family members and former students of Daws Butler, gathered to pay tribute to the legendary voice of Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, and Quik-Draw McGraw. This “reunion” was attended by the voices of “Captain Hook”, “Rocky J. Squirrel” and “Bart Simpson,” aka Corey Burton, June Foray and Nancy Cartwright, respectively.

Host Joe Bevilacqua and co-writer Ben Ohmart launched their release of a compilation of Butler’s works, “Scenes for Actors and Voices,” now available for purchase at www.amazon.com Also in attendance were Butler’s widow, Myrtis, and her sons, David, Don and Chaz.

Nancy warmed the hearts of all by sharing letters from 1977 when she was first introduced to Daws. “He’d mail me scripts so I could record them on a hand-held tape recorder. He would critique my tapes, and then send me another script. This ‘student-mentor’ relationship eventually brought me from Ohio to Los Angeles, so I could work with him personally. I owe my career to Daws Butler.”
