"Once I Met a President"

My song Perfect Hands includes the line: "Once I met a President, Bill Clinton was his name"

I really did meet President Clinton as well as Hillary, Al and Tipper among other celebrities. My husband, Jim, his siblings and I were invited to the White House Correspondents Dinner in 1997. Yes, it was a long time ago, but I keep seeing President Clinton on TV and talk shows and remember that magical night as if it were yesterday. I felt like Cinderella dressed up for a ball. I talked with George Clooney and Ellen DeGeneres and Ann Heche. Although the White House Photographer took an official photo of our family with the President, I like this one because you can read the excitement on my face as I prepare to shake hands with the most power man in the world. As my song states "He was tall and handsome and his hands were quite divine...but the Secret Services scared me. Perfect hands are hard to find"

Later, after the dinner, we danced and smoozed at the Vanity Fair Party at the Old Russian Trade Misson along side of Biannca Jagger, Tom Selleck, Robert DeNiro and other celebrities. We looked pretty spiffy, too.


I've been working on my little book "The Art of the Get Outta Here" and was listing my top ten GOH's. That GOH is Number One!
