The View with Barbara Walters ABC, May 2, 2001 The View with Barbara Walters ABC, May 2, 2001 On May 2, 2001, Margot Kidder appeared on The View with Barbara Walters to promote the release of Superman, the Movie on DVD. She talked with Walters and one of the show's hosts, Starr Jones, about AlternativeMentalHealth.com, which is sponsored by Safe Harbor. As a result, the site, which normally had about 2000 visitors a week at that time had over 19,000 visitors over a two week period. Here's part of the interview: Transcript of Interview/Margot Kidder 5/02/01 Starr Jones: You know, Margot, I was reading that you fought depression pretty much all your life and then finally in dealing with manic depression, you chose an unconventional method. A lot of people use drugs, lithium, etc. Tell us what you chose. Margot: Well, I couldn't tolerate the drugs and I couldn't tolerate the side effects. And after I had my interview with Barbara [in 1996] I tried Depakote again - on which, unfortunately, I experienced several side effects, nausea and depression. Starr Jones: That's another kind of drug? Margot: Yes, it also has a really bad side effect which is death. Luckily, I didn't have that one. (Everyone laughs.) That could be a drag! And so I went to work and did a lot of homework about what was wrong with me. And there's a new science out called orthomolecular [nutritional] medicine. Where instead of throwing a synthetic chemical on the symptoms - and that's all that mental illness is - it's symptoms that something is wrong with your system. A chemical imbalance. So you correct the chemical imbalance with amino acids and vitamins and minerals that are naturally in the body. So what has gone awry with the system is fixed in a natural sense. And many people can either cut their medication in half or get away without taking it. It's been a godsend. It's really wonderful. If you want to know more about it and you're watching, go on the internet to AlternativeMentalHealth.com. It's very scientific. It's not weird voodoo - I'm not into that at all. I think it's the wave of the future for mental health..

  • Sob Sisters: the Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture
    SOB SISTERS: THE IMAGE OF THE FEMALE JOURNALIST IN POPULAR CULTURE By Joe Saltzman Director, Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture (IJPC) Joe Saltzman 2003 The Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture revolves around a dichotomy never quite resolved. The female journalist faces an ongoing dilemma: How to incorporate the masculine traits of journalism essential for success – being aggressive, self-reliant, curious, tough, ambitious, cynical, cocky, unsympathetic – while still being the woman society would like her to be – compassionate, caring, loving, maternal, sympathetic. Female reporters and editors in fiction have fought to overcome this central contradiction throughout the 20th century and are still fighting the battle today. Not much early fiction featured newswomen. Before 1880, there were few newspaperwomen and only about five novels written about them.1 Some real-life newswomen were well known – Margaret Fuller, Nelly Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane), Annie Laurie (Winifred Sweet or Winifred Black), Jennie June (Jane Cunningham Croly) – but most female journalists were not permitted to write on important topics. Front-page assignments, politics, finance and sports were not usually given to women. Top newsroom positions were for men only. Novels and short stories of Victorian America offered the prejudices of the day: Newspaper work, like most work outside the home, was for men only. Women were supposed to marry, have children and stay home. To become a journalist, women had to have a good excuse – perhaps a dead husband and starving children. Those who did write articles from home kept it to themselves. Few admitted they wrote for a living. Women who tried to have both marriage and a career flirted with disaster.2 The professional woman of the period was usually educated, single, and middle or upper class.

  • Orthomolecular Medicine
    “You take the cards you're dealt. I'm now ferociously healthy in body and mind. You couldn't pay me to go near a psychiatrist again. Stopping seeing them was my first step to getting well.” Margot Kidder Interview by Chris Roberts, The Guardian 9April2005 https://www.theguardian.com/film/2005/apr/09/culture.features Canadian actress Margot Kidder played the role of Lois Lane in 1978’s 'Superman: The Movie’, alongside Christopher Reeve. Orthomolecular Medicine Canadian actress Margot Kidder landed the role of a lifetime when she scored the role of Lois Lane in 1978’s 'Superman: The Movie’, a superhero film based on the comic character originally created back in the 1930's. While it was Christopher Reeve’s Man of Steel who hogged the limelight, Kidder’s intrepid reporter more than kept up. But associating with the Superman, certainly did not make Margot bulletproof. In April of 1996, actress Margot Kidder's bipolar disorder swung entirely out of control. A manic episode during which, in her own words, she "... started speeding up, chain-smoking, drinking coffee and staying up around the clock," led to her becoming delusional. According to a Reuters story quoted in the Edmonton Journal, Kidder was missing for three days before being found by police in a state which was described as "dirty, frightened and paranoid." Since then it has become known that Margot Kidder struggled with her bipolar illness at least since a suicide attempt in her teens. Three marriages all ended in divorce. Page 1 of 3 www.red-spirit-energy-healing.com © 2017 Red Spirit Energy Healing In June 2000 Kidder wrote, "My health is great, due to this natural medicine path I'm following..." She has become an advocate for natural and herbal treatments for psychiatric conditions, including orthomolecular medicine.

  • Two Actors on Shakespeare, Race, and Performance: a Conversation Between Harry J
    Two Actors on Shakespeare, Race, and Performance: A Conversation between Harry J. Lennix and Laurence Fishburne Ayanna Thompson Shakespeare Bulletin, Volume 27, Number 3, Fall 2009, pp. 399-414 (Article) Published by Johns Hopkins University Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/shb.0.0106 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/316801 [ Access provided at 27 Sep 2021 14:06 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Two Actors on Shakespeare, Race, and Performance: A Conversation between Harry J. Lennix and Laurence Fishburne This conversation between Harry J. Lennix and Laurence Fishburne took place on July 19, 2008 in a café in Manhattan. Shakespeareans will recog- nize Lennix from Julie Taymor’s Titus (2000) in which he played Aaron the Moor. Fishburne, of course, played Othello in Oliver Parker’s 1995 film. As I was aware that Lennix and Fishburne have had previous con- versations and debates about Shakespeare, race, and performance, I asked Lennix if he wouldn’t mind having another conversation “on the record.” He graciously agreed, met Fishburne in New York, and tape-recorded the conversation. Performance historians and theorists will find a wealth of material in this conversation because it moves through so many of the top- ics we debate: What are the “residual” effects of Shakespeare’s language on one’s world view? What is the difference between an “authentic” portrayal of a black man and a “facsimile” of one? How does a black actor “figure” a way “around” or “through” playing Othello with pride? What are the back stories black actors must invent to play Shakespearean roles? Moreover, there is a fascinating through-line within the conversation about the his- tory of, relationships among, and advice passed between the black actors who have played Othello.
