1. If you could invite five people to dinner from history, living or dead, who would they be? A. My maternal grandmother (who died when I was eight), my maternal grandfather (who died thirty-one years before I was born), Marilyn Monroe, Vincent van Gogh, and Abraham Lincoln.
2. Why have you chosen these five individuals? A. I've been told that I have a lot of my grandmother's characteristics, I want to know all about my grandfather and the life he and my grandmother had when they were young and in love, Marilyn because I have always adored her, Vincent because he is my favorite artist and was so misunderstood, and Lincoln because he was such an interesting historical figure.
3. What would you serve for dinner? A. I would have it catered, and have a seven course meal - prepared by a famous chef - leaving all the menu and preparations to the chef's discretion.
4. What would you like to ask them? A. I would ask my grandparents about my family history and their lives as young lovers, I would ask Marilyn about her insecurities and how she felt about how she was treated by Hollywood, I would ask Vincent about his 'demons' and his life as an artist and being unable to sell his work, and I would ask Lincoln how he felt about the changes that he saw due to his actions in the Civil War. Then, I would hope that everyone would feel comfortable sharing as much as they wanted about whatever they wanted.
5. Do you think everybody seated at the table would get along? Why or why not? A. I would hope so, and I would like to think so.
